Well after a wonderful few days on the island I decided to keep moving. I caught the ferry back and a bus to Chao Doc where I will go to Cambodia from tomorrow. There was one funny hassle story, when I was getting on the bus, again on the side of the road instead of the station my bike driver said it would be around 40000. The lady on the bus said 140000, so I politely in my most colourful Australian said I would pay 40000. after about 5 mins of arguing she stopped the bus and kicked me off. When I was walking away she kept yelling 140000, but I kept saying 40000. Then she said 100,000. Anyway about 15mins later with the whole bus still waiting I got back where I was for 40,000 after she wouldn’t let me go. I wish she was understanding what I was saying from the beginning.

When I arrived in Chao Doc I went for a walk and was caught in a massive thunder storm, this would have made Noah nervous. The amount of rain was insane. these two ladies in a fruit stall told me to come and wait with them, anyway we started eating fruit, and then all their friends were giving me samples of all this fruit I have never tried before. Some of it was great but more of it tasted very different to what we get.
