Day 5 - We've got so much luggage we had to buy bus tickets for our suitcases!!!!

Another early start on an incredibly small boat to the floating markets. On our return to dock Kathryn stands up to exit the boat, puts her foot through a plank and very nearly ends up in the Mekong. Boat girl was horrified, Mike just shrugged "par for the course with her".

We then headed to the bus station to travel to Chau Doc, problem was each time we tried to enter the bus we were sent back to buy another ticket, 4 tickets for us to travel the bus..

Arrived in Chau Doc, cute town cute room with balcony for $13 for the night. Caught a motorbike each to go up Sam Mountain. Fantastic views across the rice paddies into Cambodia. Mike's bike picked up a nail so he got left on the side of the road until the other bike could take Kathryn home and come back for him.

Lovely dinner at upmarket Victoria Hotel, they were advertising tours up Sam Mountain $34 each, we paid $5 - shows the difference in what you are charged for where you stay.

Arranged boat to go to Phnom Penh, Cambodia tomorrow.
