Exit to Cambodia: what a wreck!

Yesterday we're so exhausted and dog-tired. We went to Cambodia just to have our visa renewed, so that we can stay here in Thailand for a month again. The trip to Cambodia was not nice because we left here 5a.m. and arrived there at around 9a.m. The place looks like a remote area, its like civilization hasn't reached the place...with what i saw i can say that the country has unstable economy. The place looks scary coz its dusty. Beggars and street vendors are everywher. The place has this unpleasant odor. Despite of the dreadful stuffs, there were also some good places like the casino-hotels and the duty free shops. After going back to thailand, we first head off to Holiday Palace, its a casino-hotel in Cambodia. We had our breakfast there and it was splendid coz there were lots of food served in buffet style so i got myself on festive wahehehehe... after eating to my desire we went for a walk around the hotel and look at the slots machine and etc...

After we got our visa's, we returned back to thailand, On our way back, there was a check point somewhere along the road and we were asked to pull over at the side. The driver said something about Philippines and passport, we couldn't understand them coz they were talking in thai and the driver can't speak english. Then the policeman asked us to show our passport. At first we were hesistant to give them, Ms Bing asked why he wanted to see our passport and he said "check", maybe he just wanted to check if what the driver has said was true. Maybe the driver told that we came from Philippines and just renewed our visa's. After checking our passports, we're back on the road. We arrived in the hotel at around 3pm .
