goodbye phnom penh

Here's a wrap up of my visit to Phnom Penh. It's a small city - around 1 million people. There aren't any tall buildings, I'd say the tallest is around 6 stories. The riverfront area is well presented with plenty of restaurants to choose from. I highly recommend the Foreign Correspondent's Club.

Check out the Raffles Hotel for high class drinking, of course this comes at a price premium: drinks are at least 3 times what you'd pay elsewhere. Any other drinking holes around town are cheap, but you'll have to put up with the bar girls hassling you (oh, the pain! ;-)

Here's a view from where I was working (4 stories up, south end of town).
Sunset over Phnom PenhWith a transit through Singapore I decided to spend a few days there exporing. More on that soon.
