Family and Flights
We only had one full day in Phnom Penh the first time, which we used to visit many family members. Navy's father's family is not well off and lives very differently to her mother's side who are among the upper class in Cambodia.
After than we were back on the road again to Sihanoukville on the coast. The road is much better as there is a significant shipping operation in Sihanoukville, and factories along the road to Phnom Penh. Outside of the shipping area Sihanoukville is rapidly becoming a tourist resort location along the lines of Phuket.
After two nights we returned to Phnom Penh for general activities. At this point I aquired gasto, which was not a planned activity, but fortunately I did not miss much (primarily the S21 prison).
The many flights back were slow but relatively painless. It was nice that the cheap stop over hotel in Bangkok turned out to be one of the best we stayed in.
