9 July 2009 (Day 4): Saigon - Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Taking the 1am bus back to HCM, we had Vietnamese sandwich to fill our stomach before washing up and surfing the net at the tour agency. Thereafter, we found ourselves on the 7hr bus to Phnom Penh on which Zi Kai got acquainted with Amanda, his new friend from China. =P

After surviving on snacks for lunch, I was glad to locate the highly recommended Capitol Guest House and we had a great dinner at an open roadside hawker. Cambodia food was not particularly cheap too but it was not as expensive as it was in Vietnam. We walked the city in the night, took in the sights and bought some essential supplies at a very expensive supermarket (prices were in USD).

Total expenses over 18 days: S$535
Participants: LSH, Zi Kai, Jing Kai, Lim Hwee
