We spent the last three days on the island of Koh Rung Samloem where we stayed in bungalows on water's edge placed on a peninsula near a small fishing village - if there were waves it would be paradise - and arrived back in Sihanoukville last night.
The diving was fun and the water was warm and clear... We managed to scuba five times over our stay and snorkeled around the island and its neighboring peak Koh Koun. No sharks were seen but plenty of fish and reefs.
We arrived to the island via boat in what was supposed to be a 2 hour ferry, but the boat broke it's propeller shaft about half way and four hours later we arrived. On the far side of the fishing village near our bungalows a conservation group dedicated to the plight of seahorses was headed by a militant man named Simon. I have never seen such passion for seahorses and he provided great insight to the environmental matters and village gossip.

Today was spent again on the shores of Otres Beach and now off to dinner with a crew of Kiwi's we met in Vang Vien....
