Days 15 to 18: Song Saa

 Day 15 to 18:  The Pearls and Broudy's stayed in Cambodia for 4 more days.  Amy found a resort called Song Saa.  So this post will be our Trip Advisor post.  This one is hard not to hotel boast, which you know I don't like doing.  Let's just say, if you are in Cambodia and want to relax for 3-4 days Song Saa might be your place.

Look Mom, no hands or seatbelts or helmets or worries Every country is similar but in different ways.  That makes no sense.  I mean all what we have is the same it's just different how we do it.  That also probably makes no sense.  Ok, here is what I'm trying to say.  This is Cambo...
