Sra Am back to An Long Veng

Sat 08/02/14, 79km

As the journey and destination were know this was a low stress cycle, with no need to set any sort of speed record: I wasn't templing today after all.

The day started off very hazy and misty but that burnt off soon enough. Unfortunately I was scandalously under provisioned with water, only carrying 1.5l so had to stop for a coconut en route.

Decided to check out a different place to stay and eat just for variety, the New Lucky. If you're in town don't bother, over priced particularly the restaurant.

Spent the afternoon chilling and checking out Ta Mok's house. Ta Mok was "Brother Number Four" of the Khmer Rogue and head of it's military. The house sits by a lake he had constructed, which had dead trees jutting out of it. Kind of says it all. The house? Interesting but don't go out of your way for it.
