Today is sadly our last day in Cambodia and also on our tour of South East Asia.

As like other travelling days, we started early with a 7.15am departure by bus to the Thai/Cambodian border some 2 hours or so away.

We are finishing on a high, with a modern comfy WiFi friendly coach, which is a good job as it’s almost 10hrs in total!

As others read, slept or just looked out of the window, we caught up with plans for the next stage of our trip and the impending arrival of our daughter, Amelia who flies out to Bangkok for 2 weeks on the 13th.

The next few hours passed relatively quickly and before we knew it we had arrived back in the bustling city of Bangkok. Thankfully we have returned to hotel Asai in Chinatown, where we stayed for the first night of the tour. It’s a great funky hotel right in the centre of town and close to the Chinese markets and lots of amenities.

Our first job after checking in to the hotel, was to get a new SIM card for Andy’s phone which is our lifeline to the world for communications with home as well as banking and all that important stuff. After a little toing and froing we managed to find a place selling SIM’s and got a good deal that gives us a month in Thailand with unlimited data, so we can google and navigate to our hearts content!

After the admin, we went for a walk around Chinatown, in part to try and find the restaurant we visited on our last day in the city. Unfortunately our memories deserted us and combined with the crowded streets we opted for noodles at a Japanese restaurant close to our hotel.

Returning to our hotel we had final drinks with Ryan, a Canadian who had been with us for the whole of the 30 day tour. He is a great guy and someone we intend to keep in touch with and hopefully meet when we visit Canada in the next couple of years.
