Siam Reap & Koh Phan-gan

Took the bus from Siam Reap to Bangkok on Jan 12th. I's heard that the road was bad but I wasn't prepared for just how bad it actually was. One hour out of Siam Reap, the tarmac disappeared and we were driving on dirt. The road had potholes that Ian Thorpe could drown in.

On the road, we passed this truck that was packed (inside and out) with passengers. I just caught the end of it as we went passed but you can get the idea. The thing was, this wasn't an unusual sight along the road; or in Cambodia as a whole for that matter.

I met a guy from Armagh on the bus from Siam Reap and we both headed to Koh Phan-gnan for the full moon party on Jan 14th. A good time was had by all. So much so, I only took a couple of pics. This one below is from the back of teh pick-up that was taking me back to the port to leave for Phuket.

This was the sunset on the first night on Koh Phan-gnan.
