Tuesday 21st February 2006 My taxi to Danang airport (an hour car drive away) turned up 45 minutes late as it was waiting at the wrong hotel. By this stage any remaining brown hairs on my head were turned to the more common shade of white. The taxi driver spoke no English apart from "Sorry" as we sped through the towns to Danang getting me to the check in desk 3 minutes before it closed. Good job too or I'd have missed my flight from Ho Chi Minh City... I met a woman on the plane called Madam...

If anyone has been wondering why we have not been updating this travel log lately, it is because we have been in exile on the island of Phu Quoc for a week. An hour flight from Saigon and a very bumpy half-hour ride down a dirt road we arrived at BO Resort. We had our own bungalow with a view of the Gulf of Thailand and a lush tropical garden. We hid our watches and told time by where the shade of the palm tree lay. Wonderful food (We ate a red snapper that stared at Maija the whole meal) at ...

... It's white sands, clear water...ya ya ya I'll shut up.
Anyway we're staying in this lovely little tiny resort with about 15 bungalows right on the beach. We couldn't believe it was only 10 dollars a night. It's so much nicer than anything we ever saw in Thailand for the price. There's a little restaurant where they have a seafood BBQ each night and the fish is ...
... and hot shower - believe me, that's a luxury in Cambodia!). Was on first name terms with the staff within a few minutes of arriving, (Thom the manager said he was very sad because I had a boyfriend - personally I think he just wanted a free trip to London!). I spent the rest of the afternoon on a river cruise (a cruise for one as I was the only one on the boat) to watch the sunset - very relaxing.
... enough my shower actually does have a toilet in there. Ivy cracked up, and demanded why they didn’t want go shower in toilet with her. Haha. Had a fantastic dinner with Ivy down at another beach restaurant , drinking pina coladas on the sand as the waves broke near our feet, devouring Thai style grilled fish and talking late into the night.
Travelling alone is great, but it’s also nice to share some stuff with someone else.
... banana and chocolate pancakes ever!!! Not only were they absolutely mouth-watering (the pancakes were really fluffy, you got tones of bananas and the chocolate sauce was like you get back home) but they left you absolutely stuffed until about 4pm!
We hired a moped and went to explore Phnom Chhnork and Phnom Sorsia; they are hills near Kampot which have caves and temples in/on them. We found Phnom Chhnork quite easily but not the staircase up it! The ...
... gone to the wrong pearl farm because I think there should have been a little interpretive center or something other than the bare bones demonstration followed by a shopping experience, not that it really mattered). We didn’t stay long and were soon jolting and bouncing our way further along the road. The driver had opened the passenger side window and turned off the air conditioning which would have been fine except for the fact that soon my face and shirt were getting splattered ...

... in the shadows of the palm trees. The sea was so warm probably the hottest water I have seen for 3 weeks. Had some good food in the evening (Fish Curry) and played poker again with some beers. p.s I won by miles! Sad to be leaving tomorrow but if we have extra time here we have to shave it off somewhere else.
... nice to have a bit of 'luxury' for a change.
I saw that Man Utd thrashed Wigan 4-0 to go top, looks like they're finally going through the gears and looking ominous. I don't see much 'squad rotation' in their team, Rafa?!
After dinner we retired to bed, ready for another hard day's sunbathing tomorrow!
lots of love,

... water source (hopefully not the murky brown puddle being siphoned by a big plastic hose attached to the house). BUT THEN, out of nowhere, this older man comes really close to matt, throws his arms around him, and sniffs (very loudly) up his cheek. Matt of course kept complete composure... as he always does. I dont think you understand how hard i was laughing at this point... I thought he was nibbling on his ear... but he was merely snorting ...
