24/01: another day at Sihanoukville

Today... We slept until 8.30am (which has been a long time, most days it was 6 'o clock), got up and went for a breakfast on the beach. Got back to our guesthouse where we checked our planning for Vietnam. Apparently the distance is longer than we thought :) So we'll not take the Ho Chi Minh trail through the mountains (because that will take us longer since it's harder work) but we'll follow the coast. We've read on several blogs that this isn't the nicest way for travelling by bike. But we will try to take the little roads in the south until Ho Chi Minh, and we will take a bus to skip the part between Na Trang and Hoi An.  From Hoi An to Hue is a little bit of Hw1, but in the end not so much biking on highway 1 anyway.
After the planning we had dinner (hmmm mashed patato with tomato sauce and meatball... mum, I think you came here already and learned them how to make mashed patato, because it tasted damn good and quite the same as your famous mashed patatoes :) ). After we filled our tummies, we went to the beach. For me: relaxing and reading, for Ardan: killing time and reading. Yeah well, after 3 months on a bike, it's time for my kind of thing. Although I must say, I'm getting into the biking as well (sometimes ;) ).
A good BBQ for dinner again and an early night sleep since our alarm clock will go of at 5.30am tomorrow. Early biking 'cause here on the coast it's much hotter than the rest of Cambodia. We'll bike to Kampot.

    Hoe is het met het toiletbezoek? Een eenmalig nachtelijk evenement?
    Bedankt voor het compliment v mashed patato, nooit gedacht dat je op deze manier in Cambodia aan thuis wordt herinnerd. Geniet ervan.
