Seim Reap to Phnom Penh - Day 21

---

22nd September 2010
We left the hostel around 8am and got a minivan to the Bus station to catch an 8.30am bus to Phnom Penh. The bus stopped twice on the 6.5hr journey; once for a toilet stop and another for lunch. We got off the bus for lunch and were surrounded by little kids trying to sell fruit, drinks and... tarantulas! They were deep fried but they also had some real ones crawling on their tops. Apparently they like to throw the real ones at the tourists to see their reaction; this was possibly my worst nightmare!!! Luckily i managed to avoid both the live and the fried spiders, however some of the guys did try a deep fried one.
We got to Siem Reap around 3pm and had just over an hour to shower and chill out before checking out the capital city. We walked from our hostel passed the independence monument and got to the river where we had a few drinks and some dinner. We got a Tuk Tuk to the supermarket and brought some drinks for the evening.
