RE: ⛺ From Campsite To Capital, The Road Trip Continues 🛺 Phnom Kravanh to Phnom Penh

On the way to we only drove like 100km before stopping and making a camp. That first part takes forever because it is mostly in the mountains and we have only 8 horsepower. Mostly I don't like driving from 10am to 3 or 4pm because the front of the tuk is all windshield, making it a bit like driving a solar oven.

We're hoping to leave at 5am-ish so that we can be close to home when I start getting roasted by the sun. In a perfect world with no fuel stops, a lead foot, and no cargo, I could do the journey in 7 hours. We actually have a washing machine, motorbike and kilos and kilos of whole wheat chapati flour in the tuk-tuk, so the last 100km mountain climb will likely be in 2nd gear moving about 20 km/hr, definitely not gonna be a 7-hour drive back, will probably be many powernaps, snacks and pee stops.
