5 nights in…..
hallelujah!!! I slept until 7am today!!!!! I think I briefly woke up at some point during the night but it was mostly inconsequential! So it took 5 nights to get a full nights sleep 😴
Coffee accompanied by a nice FaceTime with Jackie catching up on all the news back home was an awesome way to start the day!! Then I moved to the pool to read a book. Finished that about 2:40pm at which time we decided to go for a walk to Ao Manao, the beach on the military base beside where we are staying. It was about a 40 minute walk. It was super hot and sunny today, so we had bug sprayed and sunscreened up for this!! Still got some significant sun today as it turns out.
Absolutely gorgeous clean and soft white sand beach. We walked the length of it in the water to see this little sign right down at the very end 🙄.
To be fair I’d seen the jelly fish all the way along and I was indeed careful not to step on any…..
Made our way back to our neck of the woods and we were seated in a small restaurant ordering food by 5:45pm. The offerings were meager so we ended up ordering a ham and pineapple pizza. It was mediocre at best but I was too tired to care. We did spend some time reminiscing about the best pizza we’ve had over here. By far the Rusty Keyhole in Kampot, Cambodia wins. But also a place in Nha Trang called ???? that we found last year would get second place. Gotta look that up!!
oh ya, and I LOVE it here! This is why I don’t set an agenda before leave home! I can decide as I go along what I like.
I booked another two nights!! So we are here until July 4th.
