Hey Keith – Those were definitely gunshots! And if I remember correctly, we took motorbike taxis from the train station to the lake. I can recall speeding down the streets at night hoping we’d arrive without any problems!

Thanks for the comment Todd!

I remember hearing about those gun ranges and people having a chance to use rocket launchers and grenades but I never went myself. The Great Shangai is the closest I’ve gotten to such weapons

Hey Earl,

Great website from what I’ve seen so far! I went to Cambodia a couple years ago and really enjoyed it. Something about the tropical, 3rd world country feel maybe.
But did you ever hear of the Tuk Tuk drivers bringing their customers to the local gun range after the tour of all the temples?? Haha it was awesome. Here’s where you could have shown your AK-47 skills rather than in the Great Shanghai bar!
I look forward to reading more!

Hey Adam – Sorry for keeping you on the internet longer than you were supposed to! But I’m happy that you enjoyed the story. If you ever make it over to Cambodia, be sure to take that train…I have a feeling its an adventure every single time it runs.

Thanks so much for adding your comments!

What an amazing story. I was only meant to be on the internet for a couple of minutes but had to keep reading.

Thanks for sharing -I’ve already found myself talking about this story today with friends.

Earl,

Great site. I have a cruise ship question. I’m thinking about working on a ship for six months to a year, and I noticed you worked on a ship for a while. Right now I’m a logistics officer in the US Army, so I’m sure I can apply some skills to ship life. Are there certain companies you recommend? What can I expect for pay? Do I have to sign a contract or can I do just six months?

Thanks and keep up the good work!

At the moment I’m in Mexico as I’ve been down here for the past five months or so working on improving my Spanish. But I make it out to SE Asia at least once or twice every year!

Maybe next time I get out that way I’ll have to try the motorbike method of travel – I’m sure that leads to plenty of stories to tell as well!!

I haven’t, actually. I’m more of motor bike type of chick. Where are you now? Or do I need to wait for your next post?

Thanks for sharing your journey. I look forward to the next round!
