I knew it would be a night to remember sleeping on the beach in the coast of Cambodia. A few of the open bars offer free accomidation (matress and mosquito net on a deck) as long as you have a meal or two there during the day. I love the sound of the waves as I fall asleep and the people hanging out at Shivas Bar were all cool. Great, right? NO!
Late in the afternoon, well after I had checked out of my guesthouse I started feeling sick. Just sneezy and runny, I think due to late nights drinking with the Irish crew. So last night after hanging out for a while I decided to crash early. The music was still going, the lights were still on, but i put in my ear plugs, wrapped myself up in the big nylon hammock, and was so tired I actually fell asleep. Problem is the music went on for what seemed like many hours more. And after my exhaustion turned to simple tiredness I couldn't sleep with the music going. Couldn't get any worse, right? Wrong.
I went in and out of sleep till about 3am when I woke up with the strongest hunger pains I have ever felt. But by now everyone was asleep. I tossed and turned in my "romantic hammock by the ocean" feeling so cold and dirty. Untill my hunger pains actually turned to nausea and I threw up over the side of my "romantic hammock by the ocean."
It was indeed a night to remember.
