Yes, your input is great, Tip. BTW, I had my feet massaged by a gal named Tip. FUNNY.. I mentioned my buddy in Minnesota.
We are in our rooms at the Paragon Hotel in Phnom Penh. Its an old building on the river but nice. $33 / night.
Here is the terminal from our plane while rolling up to the gate.
We got 31 day tourist visas for $20 plus $2 for photos. Taxi, $10.

Good to see a new destination reached! Man, I can't get a passport card to get into Canada for $22, and I can almost see it from my hill...it sounds like its been a pretty affordable trip so far, not counting plane fare to get to BKK.

3 hour delay but they fed us twice. Had an Ankor beer with Joe and met a cowboy from Austin who warned us all the nefarious activity in SEA. (Remember the "Is Mexico safe?" Thread? )

Keith, I got one for you, I took this picture back in summer of 2009 my first trip back to Laos was in Thailand/Laos for 6+ weeks. I left Laos since in 1975.

So good you get to Phnom Penh without major issues, looking forward for your next post and pics.

Dace did most of the negotiating for four bikes. We settled on two Suzuki and two Honda scooters for $3050 with a promise to buy them back for $50 each less that the original sale price two weeks later. We are going with a good dose of faith without to much expectation of getting exactly what was promised.

The market was an experience for sure.

Meanwhile SPOT is back to NOT WORKING. Extremely annoying and, so far, a waste of money. I'm going to add my phone yo spotwalla and load tracks from it.

Guys,
Dean M is a friend of mine (in Oz). He rode my ST when he was over for the MotoGP at Phillip Is last October. He said he liked it so much that 'I'll probably get one when I'm your age too!' ..(you can remind him of that!)
Have a great ride,
Rich

All good in Phnom Penh. We'll post pics of the bikes tomorrow. Nothing really exciting. I know they won't make much off us at $50 per, but expect some re-negotiation on the return trip.

 

[George]

It appears my SPOT is working at least a little. I have two OKs and 3 track from today. Still spotty SPOT but maybe it'll work better when we're outside the concrete jungles into the real thing.

Glad everyone is there and faring well! Looking forward to seeing the bikes in action! Be safe and enjoy!
