• KIM gueshouse, Phnom Penh, Day 2

    November 16, 2017 in Cambodia ⋅ 🌙 29 °C

    So we get up and amy still doesn't feel up to scratch. After a slow morning we head off for an explore of Phnom Penh.
    Our aim is to reach the Royal palace, and after half an hour of walking in the immense heat I realise I have read the map wrong and we are going the wrong way. We jump in a tuk tuk that takes us there, but we are faced with a roadblock manned with a big bunch of policemen. We're not sure what's going on so we jump onto the back of a tour and follow them in until we reach the palace.
    Unfortunately it's more money then we have in our wallets to get in, so we head off down the very pretty streets. Phnom Penh is a strange place, with busy packed places making way for lovely parks and temples at random places. You never really know what you're going to find when you turn a corner here.
    Amy still doesn't feel great so we get some money from an ATM, have some dinner, and head back to realx for the rest of the day, hoping she will feel better in the morning.
