Monks at Angkor Wat


Monk at Angkor Wat

AAAAH....ANGKOR WAT.....is absolutely spectacular! We saw a lot of Wats- but this is definitely the cherry on the icecream. We throughly enjoyed our stay in Siem Reap, and loved the Ta Phrom hotel in the center right near Pub Street. We saw many of the temples and spent the last day at the museum, market and finally decided to go back to Angkor Wat for the sunset. Then our journey headed off to Battambang - 8 hours by boat (and we're not talking luxury boat or anything, I mean wooden benches). But we enjoyed the trip - and Mr. Tee (Charles's Cambodian brother) picked us up at the dock, with a sign "Welcome Rob & Ghislaine", so sweet!

How wonderful that you met up with Mr Tee and that he was waiting for you with that sign. I hope you have a good time with him and enjoy what Battambang has to offer.

How were the beer girls?

It really was wonderful, we enjoyed the bamboo train and seeing the countryside. We're now in Phnom Penh and tomorrow we depart for Sihanoukville for a few days of sun and chilling out.

Beer girls were fine, we chose the Angkor beer one :)....music was very LOUD!
