We took the new overnight bus from Siem Reap to Sihanoukville to check it out and to get to the beach for Mother’s Day. I didn’t even get my camera out of the bag so…
* I don’t have a photo of Brandon getting the second to last row and Callie and I getting two seats in the back row with chairs that didn’t recline!
* I don’t have a photo of the scary war movie they played, though Couper can tell you about it
* I don’t have a photo of Brandon taking the last Ambien
* I don’t have a photo of me managing to find half an Ambien and saying a little prayer that it would do the trick
* I don’t have a photo of the Ambien taking effect and me trying to lie down next to Callie on two seats
* I don’t have a photo of the bus braking and Callie and I falling off the two seats
* I don’t have a photo of Couper freaking out in the middle of the night probably because of the scary war movie and Brandon and I having to trade places because he wanted his mommy
* I don’t have a photo of Callie rolling off Brandon’s knee and onto the floor
* I don’t have a photo of Brandon and I quickly changing back with me picking a screaming Callie off the floor on my way
* I don’t have a photo of the dirty looks we got from our fellow bus travelers
* I don’t have a photo of all of us arriving bleary eyed in Sihanoukville
* I don’t have a photo of us sleeping most of Mother’s Day because we were so tired from the bus ride
Yea, I don’t have those photos.
