Time to leave Siem Reap and move on to Phnom Penh. We had originally thought we would do it the hard way, and take a boat up the Tonle Sap river (where we did our floating village tour) and then across the lake. We had come across some pictures of what these boats were like, and were beginning to have some doubt about the sensibility of this. However, as the river has apparently dried up too much (or because it is the tourist low season - we're unclear exactly why) - the boats weren't running...

Tuesday 27th May Up nice and early ready for our flight to Phnom Penh. We had time for a quick breakfast and then off to Rambuttri Road to catch our bus to the airport. Once at the airport we found a nice quiet spot to repack our cases and left the enormous stripped bag at the "Left Baggage" depot as we did want to go loaded to Cambodia, we needed the space to bring more bags back. Once on the flight all went well and it was a real quick flight. We arrived in Phnom Penh and our e-visas (which...

Wednesday 28th May Had a wonderful sleep last night in our Casa Hotel - very comfortable. We have a wonderful room with a great view of the Mekong River, fridge with 2 bottles free water every day. The breakfast (included in our price) was great with everything. We decided today to do most of our things on foot so we walked to the Central Market which we found very nice and interesting with lots of nice bags to buy. Everyone was nice and friendly, but on the way there we did find that the str...

Thursday 29th May Up nice and early again and when we went down to breakfast there was an enormous buffet breakfast laid on as there had been a bus load of Chinese visitors. After breakfast we went outside and managed to find a tuk-tuk that was reasonable and got him to take us to the "Russian Market" which was really very far from the hotel - too far for us to walk. The Russian market was a bit of a dump and not as nice as the Central one so we did not buy anything there just had a walk arou...

Wednesday 4th June Up nice and early this morning ready for our trip back to Phnom Penh by coach bus. Arrived early at our bus and managed to get nice front seats in the bus, the bus was late in leaving and eventually we left at 9.20am. We arrived at the border at 12 noon and this time because we had e-visas we had to go separately through the immigration check point while the rest of the bus went thro another way. We were a bit longer this time and the bus had to wait for us but we get clear...

... on the waterfront. Everything seems to shut down between noon and two, mainly because it's too hot (around 97 degrees these days) and most people in town go home to eat lunch and sleep. At 2 o'clock I have my Khmer lesson with Sam Aang, a kind elderly man with strange blue eyes that teaches English at the EU Vocational School. Scott told me about him and it seems that he has given Khmer lessons to every foreigner that has lived in Prey Veng in the past ...

... voel me vereerd. En draag de meeste bandjes nog steeds. Je moet wachten tot ze afvallen. <br><br>De dag erna heb ik dus geklommen, dit was heel heftig, veel moeilijker dan ik had verwacht. We hadden een paar gevorderden bij ons dus de routes waren niet de makkelijkste en ik heb al jaren niet meer geklommen dus het viel me zwaar maar het was leuk en de plek was prachtig.<br><br>De dag erna ging ik op weg naar Vientiane de hoofdstad. Dit is een grote, vrij moderne ...

... connected to them, and to see the places of mass graves and prisons today was horrible, especially considering that it was only in 1997 that the Khmer Rouge's influence over the country was properly removed. Particularly harrowing was the collection of skulls at The Killing Fields to commemorate the victims. What makes it more amazing is the development of Cambodia since that time, they are the most positive people imaginable and are eager to put the ...

... s, brought me to floods of tears. going through the cells gave you a small sense of the appalling conditions in which the victims were forced to live. It was completely overwhelming, it also felt a bit wrong visiting the prison as a tourist destination, and seeing people taking photos as if they were standing infront of Big Ben. One of the girls we met told us how she was asked by some other tourists there to take a ...

... to buy some of the things he was going to bring out to us. A travel kettle was number 1 on the list so that we can have cups of tea and pot noodles in our room and save some money on meals. We also handed our passports to Cino travel agency and gave them $82 to extend both of our Cambodian Visas – we're now able to stay until the 5th August.<br><br>The 24th June was also day 100 of our trip – a real landmark – to ...
