Trip to Sihanoukville

Over the Phcum Ben - national holiday over here - most people head back to their homelands so towns shut down - so I went down to the coast and stayed a few days in Sihanoukville - the plan was to head out to an island off the coast and chill out for a few days however just like in the UK on Bank Holidays it decided to rain a lot over the holidays so we decided to stay on the main land and chill out there.
Didn't get up to much apart from reading a few books and having a few ales and great seafood - total chill out.


Cooking squid at the beachside




Yummy baby squid with chilli & lime


Women wonder along the beach with baskets of these and they are so good served with pepper, salt & lime

Non-alcoholic I'll have you know however it was the morning after the night before!!
 We went out for a boat trip to an island to do some snorkeling but as mentioned before it was raining quite a lot over the holiday!!
We got absolutely soaked before we even got in the sea!

My foot after it decided to fight with some coral!! I have had to go barefoot for the past week!

  1. Ouch, coral is nasty - looks like its clearing up nicely though.....Josh was most interested by the BBQ set up - could be he's found a new way of getting the 'barby' to the beach....delicious looking squid! love rx
