Weekend getaway


Kep is the smallest province in Cambodia and about a 4 hour bus ride from Phnom Penh. It is a sleepy beach down fronting the Gulf of Thailand that many people come to for a relaxing retreat away from the city. 

We decided last minute that we would go for the night and get some needed quiet time away from the busy streets and pushy tuk tuk drivers. 

The actual beach was further along the road but our waterfront was filled with a different kind of activity. Fishing. I had a great time walking through the market and had no shame being the tourist snapping pictures of everything. You can buy souvenirs but the best part was the fresh seafood for sale. People would lift their basket out of the water and locals would come over and grab out what they wanted. Doesn't get any fresher than that!
