Visiting Sihanuokville


Well I have been conned into my 1st Blog and asked to thee tell you about Sokun and my stay at Sihanoukville.  It was about the 23 or 25 th of January that Sokun was asked to go to the BEC in Sihanoukville to teach K’s younger sister some cooking for a week. We decided to go after the 30th of January, as I had to renew my visa. We set out on a warm February afternoon with six children on a normal  5 hour Bus trip at 3:00 pm and arrived there at around 8:30-9:00 pm and were meet by K whom I had only met only met once before, As we were not 100% sure where the BEC was. By the time we arrived at the BEC , We mainly wanted Just a feed, Shower and bed.     Day 1 to 7 went with a relaxed routine coming about and continuing .
We all would be up and about early for the day as Sokun would start the day by teaching Srey pov and cooking breakfast, and not too long after breakfast Sokun and Srey pov would be off to the market for the day’s Supplies(Sokun Did complain it cost more there). After a good lunch we would then get ready for an afternoon on the beach, for those That have been there you only have to think back and for those who haven’t, well what are you waiting for. They are beautiful beaches with white sand and pine tree’s (yes. pine tree’s) for shade. We did that every 2nd day and loved it. Morning’s doing some studies, then swimming and playing and chilling at the beach. The BEC there also is in a good building and roomy, though not as large as in PP. K and family are doing well and loving it there (and who wouldn’t ).
Savvy and his wife have recently moved there and they came to see us while we were there , they also were looking well. All in all it was a great week, but all good things must come to an end sometime (pity ). Day 7 and back to PP. Will be 100% going back there Again.
