Borders

We spent six hours in Koh Krong, five of them asleep. We hired bikes and got to the border with Thailand by 8am, opening time.

I would strongly advise all sensible people to use the Trat/Koh Krong crossing. It is like a tiny market which happens to have an international border. There was none of the horrificness of Poi Pet, although it was raining like the world was about to end (but I am reliably informed that it's not always like that).

There are only two roads in Cambodia: one between Siem Reap and Phnom Penh, and one between Phnom Penh and Kampot - and that one isn't finished. Crossing the border into Thailand was like entering another world. It was the easiest thing in the world to get a minibus (with the correct number of occupants) to Trat, and then an overly-air conditioned bus from there to Bangkok. There are roads, and signs, and even speed limits.
