Overnight in a hut on the beach

Last night we stayed on "Bamboo Island" aka Koh Russei. It is a remotish island that you need to take a ferry to.

My dream was that it would be really cool to stay in a remote beach, in a neat deserted island shack on the beach somewhere. Doesn't that sound cool?

The beach >was< remote - there were just maybe 10 cabins (maybe 4 couples), two bars and some farms. And our shack was pretty neat, airy even.

Unfortunately for me and my sunburn induced desire to go to sleep early, that night, a Friday, was a party night at one of the bars and I think everyone (Cambodian farmers included) on the island came out to party.

I'm not complaining. It's just not what I had fantasized.
