Day 191  Feb 11  2015    Phnom Penh Cambodia


We were taken from our hotel to the tourist pier in Chau Doc by bicycle taxi.  We then boarded the express boat to Phnom Penh.  We stopped at the Vietnamese boarder to get our exit paperwork done.  We then got back into the boat for a few hundred meter ride to the Cambodian Border where we got our visas and lots of stamps in our passport.  The entire border crossing took just over 1 hour.  We then got back into the boat and were taken to Phnom Penh.  We left the hotel around 7 am and got to Phnom Penh close to 2 pm.  It was a scenic way to travel between the two countries.  We took a tuk tuk to the hotel and relaxed for ½ hour.  We then walked to a restaurant around the corner followed by a long walk to the night market on the other side of the city and back.  We stopped at the Blue Pumpkin for some ice cream. We ate it watching the street life along the promenade and the Mekong flowing by.
