We managed to arrive to Kompong Cham by the Mekong river on Sunday afternoon. And we found quite awful hotel room, but very very cheap as well. The choice of hotels in this small town was not best and we did not find any Hilton hotels in the neighborhood. But luckily the town itself was quite nice and relaxed with also some interesting evening activities like Aerobics by the Mekong (we did not attend) and some rowing competition with very big rowing boats probably each accommodating around 30 rowers. And in the Monday morning we had very nice morning biking in the small island on Mekong river where we saw probably quite authentic rural country life without cars or wired electricity (although there seemed to be some car batteries used as electricity source in some homes). It was really nice biking with lots of kids saying 'Hello' to us strange white people - although by the time it started to get bit annoying after 100+ greetings.

After that we started to head for Phnom Penh by a bus, which was quite tiring
In Phnom Penh we had pleasurable evening stroll and excellent dinner at Friends-restaurant. Highly recommended anyone being in this part of the world especially as it is run by former street kids (tought by this place being waitress/cooks) and helping new kids all the time.
And again we managed to see Mekong - This time even bigger as it was joining with another big river Tonle Sap.
