House No.1, Phu Quoc, Day 4

It's my birhday! Amy wakes me up with a cake adorned with a 2 and a 6 candle that is delicious and some great presents! She also says i can choose what to do all day (which is good news as arsenal are playing later).
For some reason, i have had the film mean machine in my head since yesterday, so we watch that in bed eating m and ms before heading out to book our travel to cambodia and eat some crab soup.
After that we chill in the room and get sorted for tomorrow, before heading out to the beach for he sunset. It really is worth visiting the island just for the sunset on the beach. Havig a few beers watching it go down is great, even when some grey clouds come over threatening to spoil it!
After that we go out for a bite to eat in a restaurant that bizarrely has happy birthday painted in big letters on a wall above a table. We feel we can't not sit there, and are glad we did as the food is good and the staff very friendly. They even bring me free birthday desserts of warm coconut and a weird creme caramel drenched in cold coffee thing. The taste isn't great, but the thought is very nice.
After that we go to a beer to watch arsenal lose. I swear they always lose on my birthday so it's not a real surprise. We then go back to the hostel, where the staff have all remembered and wished me happy birthday which is nice. They bring out some complimentary shots and sing happy birhday before we play a tune on the guitar while some people sing. It's a great end to a great birthday, and a great emd to a great trip. Tomorrow we are up early for our trip to cambodia. Time to see what else South East Asia has to offer!Läs mer
