Whites on Bikes
FUN-TASTIC....the best way to see Cambodia is by motor bike, the big wheeled roaring kind, the roads here are so bad that anything less is a mistake.
After a large night with 40th birthday beer, I made a Powerpoint Presentation to the staff here then honestly RAN out the door. Yes, yes it's been close to 15 years since I last used a clutch, so I DID crash the monster almost immediately...however the guy from the bike shop let me take one away for the weekend anyway! bless ím...though I did let him sit a little tooo close during those lessons..
Binny, wounds still healing from her last accident, and Nile my new business partner and the most well prepared man on earth. It took us nearly an hour to get out of this city, but once we were in the provinces it was all alll allllll goood. Some very cool reactions from the locals as we zoomed by, especially at Binny and I.
We stayed at Bodhi Tree - where the vaperizer was back working, we spent the evening standing about in the garden and staring at the sky.... full moon only means one thing in my wolrd.
Rusty Keyhole for their world famous ribs....and I kid you NOT when I say it would have to be the bestest meat I've tasted since the first lamb roast back in NZ (after so many years a vegi & prepared by my Mum).
Day trip to Kep, managed to have a little accident where the bike pinned me halfway down a thistle covered bank..leaking gas... they're heavy machines. little shin damage
Kep is so far my fav place in Cambodia. A lovely little area that used to be a french beach resort, but since deserted and now lands getting snapped up by anyone with any sence/cents...whish I had... relatively untouched by tourism, the french made rock walls along the beach and planted wisely. well at least they got that much right ;-)
Crabs at sunset
ahhhhh Now all fresh for Phnom Penh and Yellow Pages
alittle bit tanned, a little sore and a little stupid
SO MUCH FUN
Here is Lydia and I, we lived together for a few months...total opposites, I like to think we influenced eachother nicely
