Although our stay on the island fell on the dry period, in the region of Southeast Asia you are never guaranteed beautiful sunny weather. There was always a break in the weather during our stay.

Usually these are short downpours, sometimes lasting all night, but then the rainfall is very dynamic, with gusty winds resembling a hurricane. Then staying in the sea, because it is warm, always becomes dangerous, just like staying under palm trees. A soaked palm branch can weigh several dozen kilograms, and when it falls, it will break our bones at best.

On the island of Koh Rong we had the ojasion to experience such an all-night storm. The roof of our bugalov creaked and it was hard to sleep.

After the night storm, I decided to go for a morning walk on the beach. I visited a nearby place called White Beach. The landscape has changed dramatically there, compared to the previous day. The sea was choppy, though the color was still emerald green, and the sand on the beach had been beautifully smoothed. Well, in a few days we're changing the island to an even more beautiful one.
