While in Siem Reap we stayed in a guest house called the friendly guest house. It was really nice, only 4 dollars a person and it had TV and hot water. We stayed there for three nights and by the third night we decided to give in and pay 11 dollars in order to have ac. We did have internet here for free but the computers were painfully slow. Par...

The boat to Siam Reap was cool. Within 30 min did we feel the first stages to a sour **** and within an hour did the unbearable **** ache make us curse ourselves for not taking the bus. After have tried all different ways you can sit on a bench did we haul out so we could sit and stand outside the boat and wave to passer-bys. It was the perfect ...

This is our 2nd day of exploring the temples in and around Angkor Wat. We started at Banteay Srei which is 37 kilometers away from Siem Reap. We slowly made our way back in, taking in about 6 other temples and the Land Mine Museum. The other temples we visited included Preah Khan, Pre Rup, East Mebon, Ta Som, and Neak Pean on the "large loop" of...

Arrived back in Siem Reap for an overnight stop before going back to Bangkok. Tuk Tuk driver from the bus station was a pain as he changed the price after he discovered we weren't going to hire him to tour the temples!! twas only by 50 cents but it's the principle. Met a Dutch woman who shared our pain with this one. We went back to the same gue...

Yesterday we saw a few more temples in the Angkor complex. We toured by Tuk-Tuk. That is an open little cab with a roof that four people can sit in. It is either combined with a motorcycle front and engine, as in Thailand, or pulled behind a moto (motorbike) as a small trailer, as in Cambodia. Sim's brother drove us around. We went back to Angko...

I made it on the bus to Siem Reap! Total travel time 6 hours on an air conditioned bus that played Mr Bean and Cambodian Karaoke videos the whole way! I had been warned by mates who have visited here that when you get off at the bus station you will be mobed by tuktuk/moto drivers. I found that all a bit overwhelming at the airport in Phnom Penh...

Hi Everybody! I must say that all went well on the trip here. However, I think I picked up a bit of scurvy on the long journey to the Japans. When I reached landfall, I discovered that all of my hair had fallen out. Also, my teeth all seem loose. So I finally reached Bangkok after many hours of travel. I arrived an hour late, so I took a taxi to...

Suas'dei! Wow, wow, wow. We've spent the last couple of days exploring Angkor Wat and surrounding temples and ruins, and I really don't know how to put it into words. Suffice to say, we both agree that it's the most amazing thing we've ever seen. We knew it was going to be spectacular, but I don't think we could imagine the extent of their magni...
