today we took the bus from phnom penh to siem reap. it was supposed to take 3 hours, and it took 6.
then when we got here the hotel we were super looking forward to staying at didn't have our reservation and was booked up. so we waundered the streets in the dark looking for another place. we found one, but didn't like it. it was crappy. so we left that room and waundered again. we found one, it's more expensive, but we like it. unfortunately, it only has two twin beds, so they pushed them together into one double. we might stay here for the next 10 days if we can get a different room.
all in all it's been a bit of a rough day. and a waste of day. we're going to go scavenge some dinner now. we haven't eaten a meal in 12 hours.
:S

travel days that are spent in buses, trains and boats, and then wandering looking for accommodation after your reservation has been given away to someone else are part of the experience. glad you found a place you like. enjoy it.
Sorry to hear it was rough. All who have travelled in those parts of the world know EXACTLY what you are talking about!

But you are in siem reap!!!! I am in stinking hot Hartington...and i am not on a honeymoon. Mind you i still havent had one. Keep the reviews coming, maybe one day in the far future i will enjoy missed reservations and traveling on buses!
Hope tomorrow brings you surprising things that are welcomed and good. Aren't honeymooners supposed to enjoy a twin?
