goodbye paradise.

our last days in sihanoukville were bitter-sweet! we made a wonderful group of friends and basically merged ourselves into the community.. making plans with the locals, or tourists who have found themselves kicking around for more than a few days (as we can fully understand isn't hard to do) going out, meeting for supper, boat trips, the works.. johny, a local who owns a bar on the beach, and his friend danny who works a few bars over threw a going away party in our honor.. we're all so comfortable in such a short time, i was actually behind the bar this weekend, helping pour pints or just hanging out (to everyone's amusement.. they found me there after i'd been gone a while, feeling quite at home) a job offered ensued, i politely (sadly) refused.. so as can be imagined, it was hard to say goodbye..
