30/08/11 - Phnom Penh (Killing Fields) Yesterday was a quite day just on a public bus travelling to Phnom Penh. It was a good experience driving through all the farmlands and seeing all the families farming the rice, fishing, and playing in the streams. We arrived in Phnom Penh in the evening and had a quick freshen up before heading out for dinner in town and I had another nice curry, but Rachel finally caved and went for the home luxury food of pizza, mmmm. ...

Day 6 - Angkor Wat (Cambodia)Well we made it to the hotel yesterday and massive surprise, it was lovely, 2 double beds, shower, normal toilet, and free wii fi, perfect.

When, all of a sudden loads of Thai people started running around like maniacs - bringing in tables and chairs from restaurants (which made it impossible to get the bill!), bringing in wheeled market stores, and pulling out umbrellas. Suddenly...

Day 3 - Still in BangkokThere was success and failure last night, success we found Martin and Sophie, failure we didn't find the insect stall (or is it the other way round). Well after all a few drinks to celebrate our reunion we headed back to the guesthouse for what I thought would be a nice relaxing sleep, however just as we were approaching the guesthouse Sophie decided it would be a good idea to pay 100 baht (£2.20) for half hour an hour of Thai torture…...
