Roey

Well we woke up this morning in a world of pain from the drinks last night and were running around as usual like blue arsed flies trying to pack and fit everything in our backpacks. Got downstairs and were waiting for the bus to pick us up when we realised we didn't have the ticket receipt for the bus. Of course I was swearing Damian as he'd allegedly been the last to have them, so whilst he was swearing and opening his bag on the pavement and throwing shit around, I ran up to the room for a last minute check. NOTHING!. I then opened my bag and found them sitting there. I felt like a complete dickhead as we were basically claiming that the staff hadn't given us our ticket. To this day I still ... read more

Anyway last night we ended up going for a walk around the riverfront for some cheap drinks. There are cafes and bars everywhere so you don't have to look too hard. We met a little guy who had no legs but was selling bracelets with countries on them and their flags. His name was Hun Yut and he couldn't speak English but we got another girl to translate. We told him off for not having any Australian bracelets but he could do 2 for us in 2 hours. He was selling them for $1 each so Damian gave him $3 and told him that we would be back the next night at 7pm to pick them up. He was lovely and it was good to see that he wasn't begging or hawking but was using his ... read more

Woke up at 0630 as we were on our way to Phnom Penh and were gettting picked up at our hotel at 0745. As usual, we were hungover, hadn't packed shit so between swearing, chucking tantrums, finding what what we wanted, then losing it two seconds later it was tense morning. We finally got our act together and were ready and waiting downstairs to pay our hotel bill. Usually they make you pay the whole bill when you get there but for some reason, they let us pay at the end. The total for 3 nights and bus tickets it was $56. BARGAIN!!! I popped a valium so I wouldn't kill Damian, any other passengers or myself on the 6 hour trip to PP. When our bus arrived to pick us up I thought it was ... read more

Well today was 0430 wake up time to see sunrise over Angkor Wat. Our guide was arriving at 0515 to pick us up. As I had consumed a massive amount of alcohol on Pub Street the night before I couldn't even open my eyes. Damian woke me and said to hurry up and get in the shower. I refused and said that I wasn't going to go. We were also supposed to go to Banteay Srei which is 32kms from Siem Reap but because of the roads, it takes about an hour to get there. I told him to go by himself cause I was hungover like a dog. He ended up leaving for the sunrise walking out the door and calling me a 'farken idiot'. All I could manage in my state was a very ... read more

Arrived Darwin airport and checked in for our Crapstar flight (whoops.. Jetstar) to Singapore. We had planned on bringing our backpacks on as cabin luggage as Damian had a great plan to hang out in the transit lounge and try and get into QANTAS club so we could shower, eat and drink for free and hang out there for our 8 hour layover before heading to Siem Reap. Well, that plan backfired. We had to check our luggage in which meant we had to clear immigration and customs in Singapore and pray to god that we could check in early for our flight to Sieam Reap. The flight from Darwin to Singa's was uneventful except for the baby crying for the entire flight and an annoying Australian bloke sitting on the row across from us crapping ... read more
