10 March 08 - Hot, hot HOT!!

Today is our nua day…..really really slack. I have planned 1 extra day to stay in Phnom Penh. Hence,we decided to wake up later and started our day later. I decided to have pancakes for today’s breakfast. Baby still stick to his favourite breakfast menu…

OMG, what huge pancakes these are!!

We decided to go to Sorya Shopping Centre to do some window shopping and last min shopping.

Lunch time!! But what should we eat? Been quite tired eating those food we used to eat, as they don’t come cheap. Then we came across the food court in the shopping centre, and decided to give a try.

Great, now we faced the language barrier challenge. No English menu unlike those we used to frequent previously. This is purely the local area. So what to do? We decided to stop by this stall as they had a sample dish on display. And we used sign language :D Even they felt amused.

What is so different abt the foodcourt: they used token to pay for food!! That we realised while waiting for our order, that Baby had to go buy the tokens.

Our tokens! Cost approximately US$2.50

 OMG!! It was so much cheaper here!! Where we used to eat, one portion can cost to US$4- 5 dollars. H0w I wished we can find this place earlier, we can save cost on food :(

They are just as nice…yum yum

After late lunch, we decided to drop by the supermarket to get some bread and others for tomorrow’s trip to Siem Reap. Then I saw this. Red Duck eggs!! Hmm, why it is red?

We got some breads, instant noodles and porridge. Yeah, I missed those actually :P

^^^^^^

We headed back to hotel since it was almost 6pm.

 At the hotel, we were informed that our intended bus journey has been changed from 0930 to 0730. Well, meaning we need to get up at 4am….

End of the day

Felt very bored in Phnom Penh. Now doing packing to get prepared for our 2nd leg of our journey.
