From Vietnam to Cambodia

Decided the best way to travel from Vietnam to Cambodia was by water so decided to book ourselves on a Mekong Delta trip which got us to Phnom Penn over the space of two days. Was a really wonderful way to travel - enjoyed the gorgeous scenery along the Mekong, the stops in pokey little villages, and sitting on deck as the sun set and the stars came out. Had to change boat quite a few times over the two days, but the best part being the rowing boat especially thanks to our lively rower! Along the bank children would often come racing out of their houses to shout hello, wave enthusiastically and give us huge smiles - it was so cute! Arrived in Phnom Penn quite late on our second night and were immediately impressed with our friendly hostel service - warmed to Cambodia straight away!
