Pepper country

---

Kampot is famous for its pepper and its crabs, and justly so! There is a pretty riverside promenade, with some restaurants and bars. In theory there are things to do, like go to Kep and see some ruined villas, or go to Rabbit Island. You could visit Bokor Hill Station, which is a French hillside station, if it wasn't being redeveloped into a casino. You could go out into the baking heat of the day, and get a tuk tuk to drive you around the hot dusty roads to see a pepper plantation or a cave. However, we didn't do any of those things, except that we saw Kep as we drove through it in the bus. We also skipped the 24 hour psychedelic dance party at the organic resort 3km out of town.

We did have some lovely crab with fresh local pepper, and a number of cocktails and beers. One of us found a use for the medical kits we invested in back in Australia, and thank goodness for those antibiotics.
