• Almost catastrophic travel day

    January 30, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    Flight from Phnom Penh airport delayed an hour on an already very tight connection.

    "1 hour taxi" - very little English speaking driver got us across the city in approximately 30 minutes.

    Had to get our tickets from a security guard across the street because the vendor we bought them from closed early ( good work AK for catching that detail in the fine print a couple of days before)
    Then board the....... Old..... Overnight train to Chiang Mai. Surprise it wasn't a 10 hour ride it was almost 14 hours but I slept better on that train than I have the whole trip.
    Arrived at our gorgeous, luxurious hostel to take warm showers ( first one since Bangkok) and set out to explore the city.
    See next post for dinner 😊
