It was only a 1 night flying visit to Cambodia's Capital city, with only two stops planned - collect our passport with our 60day Thai visa in (that we dropped off the previous week at the Thai Embassy) & the visit to the famous Killing Fields. When we were here last week we'd arrange to meet Coco the tuk-tuk driver (not clown) on our return to take us around S21 Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum & Choeung Ek Genocidal Centre (Killing Fields) & as soon as we ...

Much in need of beach resort destination we headed to Sihanoukville on the Cambodian south coast.We took a route via Phnom Penh so we could put our passports into the Thailand Embassy to get our free 60day visa, which would take a week to process or $20 same day express visa -we opted for the week FREE one ! When we arrived in Sihanoukville just getting off the bus was crazy - 20 or so tuk-tuk drivers were running like Usain Bolt to be the first to meet the passe...

However as with everything else in Asia nothing leaves until it is packed...

So we hopped on an overnight sleeper bus from Vientiane that actually had double bed cabins complete with pillows, duvets, free food & drink r...

After such a party scene in Vang Vieng it was nice to visit a small quiet town called Luang Prabang. With lots of temples and monks everywhere we knew we were in tranquillity. Was a time for Fay and I to reflect and relax with massages and gorgeous meals out, a really nice treat. Unusually, we turned up with no accommodation and struggled to get somewhere within our budget but after 2hrs of walking and checking guest houses we found a room with ensuite at a place...
