Stuck in Cambodia.

Over the past few days leading up to our departure from Cambodia we have run into more problems than we have encountered over the entirety of our trip. First there was the bus ride from hell, then the motorbike accident (which caused us to stay an extra day). The day after the accident we were almost attacked by a centipede and a snake (Steve says the centipede was cool). Today we were supposed to catch a bus from Ban Lung (where we've been staying) to Don Det in Laos. The bus arrived in Stung Treng just fine, but upon arrival at 1130AM we were told that we had to wait until 2PM for the bus. We kinda just wanted to get going, but we were ok about the wait. Then a few minutes later, we were told that there had been some sort of hold up with the bus, and that it wouldn't be here until 4PM. We were a bit annoyed but, having already bought and paid for the ticket, realised we didn't have a choice and sat and waited. At 4PM we were told that the bus was late, but it was on its way... a bit over an hour later we were told that it had broken down, and that we have to stay the night here, in Stung Treng, a hole!
Will we ever get to leave???????? Team morale is at a low... PLEASE CAMBODIA LET US LEAVE TOMORROW!!!

  1. Were the centipede & snake like partners in crime, ganging up on you? Did you take photos of them?
