We got to Siem Reap about 4 pm. We went out to dinner at a Khmer BBQ spot and then Linda and I went out.
There's a section of Siem Reap called Psar Chaas which translate to Old Market. And in this area, there's a street called Pub Street. There are tons of ex-pats who hang out in this area. Linda and I walked around and the first thing we came upon was fish massage. It's basically a fish tank that you stick your feet into and the fish nibble away at your feet. Linda was gamed and went for it. It was rather funny. I didn't do it.
After the fish massage, we hit several bars on Pub Street. One of the bar was called Angkor What? It's a good play on word since the main attraction in Siem Reap, actually in all of Cambodia, is the temple Angkor Wat.
The other fun bar we went to was called X Bar. There was a live band performing rock tunes.
Overall it was a really fun night. The only problem, I drank a little bit too much. Plus, I had 3 menthol cigarettes. The cigarettes aren't as strong as the ones in the US. Well I think I had 5 Absolut on the rocks and the 3 cigars. It cost me less than $20 for the night. But boy did I pay the price the next morning.
My dad is rearing to go the minute he wakes up. So at 7 am, I was up and showered. I think we were at breakfast by 8 am. I was definitely hung over. My stomach was not feeling well at all. I thought it would help if I purged, but nothing happened.
The place we ended up at for breakfast was right across the street from the hotel, but we drove there. I barely made it to the restaurant's restroom in time. I ate a little bit of food but was definitely feeling green. Linda kept laughing at me since she didn't have that last drink the night before. I think it was that last drink that did me in.
Luckily, my dad agreed to let us go back to the hotel and let me and Linda sleep some more.
