Awoken by gongs sounding loudly at 5:30am, we rushed to our balcony to see what the fuss was all about. It was a funeral procession and at least 200 locals surrounded a wooden casket. A couple of hours later we heard people raging to techno music for a wedding. So much for us sleeping in for the first time! Dying to get back on the open road, we rented motos for the day. We explored all of the coast around Hoi An and planted ourselves under a cabana on An Bang B...

Hoi An is famous for it's custom tailoring. To check out all the hype we browsed fabrics, got our measurements taken and had a few things made for us. With only a 24 hour turn around time, we are excited to pick everything up tomorrow! Overwhelmed from all the shopping, we treated ourselves to a lovely rooftop dinner at Cargo Restaurant on the river. We shared plates of Vietnamese seafood dishes, desserts and a few margaritas.

The morning finally arrived for us to Tuk Tuk our way in the dark to watch the sunrise over Angkor Wat. People travel from all over the world to experience this and we kept pinching ourselves because it felt surreal. We spent the rest of the morning wandering Angkor City, visiting the main temples Angkor Thom, Bayon and Ta Prohm. Ta Prohm is also known as the Tomb Raider Temple because scenes with Lara Croft were filmed here. Walking through these magnificent bu...

With a fresh start in a new country, we ate a typical Vietnamese breakfast in a family style kitchen.

We rode up and down the beaches visiting The Marble Mountains and The Lady Buddha. Not so spoiled in this country, absolutely nothing was in English. It took a bit of trial and error as well as dodging hundreds of locals around many round-abouts ...

Siem Reap, Cambodia was our next destination. A bus service picked us up from our hotel at 7:20am and we started our 6 hour ride. Choosing ground vs. air transportation in order to see more of the country side, we were in for more of an experience than we expected. Switching between more dirt than paved roads, we dodged pot holes and cars while flying by farm land, small impoverished villages and the occasional temple. When we came to a halt in the middle of nowh...
