The next day I decided to walk down to the public beach that was across from the hotel that we were staying in. What a difference. I couldn't believe that I could be in the same town, and the 2 different beaches could be so different. There were tons of people there. As soon as I stepped foot on the sand I was surrounded by girls wanting to give me manicures, pedicures, braid my hair, make me a bracelet...I made a quick right to just get out of the chaos, and then I looked up and saw a sewer pipe draining right into the ocean. Gross! I turned around and walked the other way on the beach. There were bars and restaurants lining my whole walk. There was even a guy who offered internet to me. What a difference from my tranquil day at the Sokha. It was kind of enjoyable because I met a little boy and his mother that were so sweet. They let me take their picture, and then I went back to my hotel.
The sewer pipe...
These were just some little girls selling food as they walked up and down the beach.
It is kind of hard to see, but this woman has a grill on one side and dishes and food storage on the other side. She will sit down and grill you the latest catch.
This was the little boy and his mom that I made friends with. So cute, and so much pink!
That night we decided to go back to the private beach to get a drink and some dinner and watch the sun go down. It was beautiful, and tranquil. It was a good vacation, even though I have a bit of a sunburn.

Great pictures. you are a webmaster. The Mom and child are very cute. Nice soft photo. Lots of folks staked out by the sewer pipe, eh! Is it difficult not to hurl there where you are? The lady with the grill and fish must certainly stock barf bags?? I saw the word 'LOST' rotating in.
