Relaxing at the Beach in Sihanoukville

Another day and a half of riding, one more night spent on the road in the small town of Takeo, and we then found ourselves with time for a lunch break in the resort town of Kampot.

Here's Brian and Daniel, having a beer before getting a great rack of ribs at a popular restaurant called The Rusty Keyhole:

Aside from being world famous for the pepper, Kampot is a really quaint seaside town with a lot of restaurants and more. However, before we could blink, we were on the road again ready to finish our ride in Sihanoukville.

Once in Sihanoukville, we said good-bye to our bikes and our riding companions, and spent some time at the beach. Fortunately, we were not left totally on our own to find our way as Shiran (the other partner in Stray Dog Adventures) made us a reservation at La Casa beach bungalows on Otres beach, and he and Daniel then took us there on the back of their bikes.

We spent about five days at the beach before catching the overnight bus to Siem Reap.
