... left the table with our original stake of 15 Dollars. I had had my fill of free beer and staggered out with a smile on my face. An entertaining night with free beer, nice.<br>Sihanoukville had been a holiday, a break from travelling, but time was starting to run out for us and it was time to strap on our skates and get going.

It was very exciting to for once see my name on a sign at the airport ;) Our friend Erin works for an NGO here. It was the beginning of the Khmer New Year so his work was having a big party.
