We arrived in Kampot at lunch time and got stuck straight into the sightseeing. We hired a driver, Bun Loung, to take us to see some local caves. We arrived at a small village and then headed up the hill to the cave entrance. We explored the main chambers and thought we had seen all there was to see, but then discovered that Bun had other ideas....we were to climb into holes, squeeze through small cracks in the rock and even do a little bit of rock climbing to se...

On our first full day here in Phnom Penh we visited the National Museum which has the world's finest collection of Khmer (Cambodian) sculptures in the world! It was really interesting for us, as a lot of the sculptures had been taken from the ruins of temples at Angkor and so we understood a bit more about the styles they were talking about during our visit there. After the museum we headed to Psar Tuol Tom Pong, more commonly known as the Russian market, as th...

We headed to the Temples of Angkor at 4.45pm, the day before we planned to go, as we were told that if we purchased our ticket then, we'd get a 'free' sunset inside the complex, as the ticket doesn't begin until the following day. So, we followed the crowds and headed up the very steep climb to the temple of Phnom Bakheng (it was like a cliff face!). At the top, there were hundreds of other tourists, headed to watch the sunset over Angkor Wat and Tonle Sap lake. ...

We headed to the bus station in Bangkok, ready for our trip to the border of Cambodia, which took 5 hours. We walked across the border into Cambodia and then opted for a bus to take us to Siem Riep which was a VERY long 6 hours in an old rickety bus following a dirt track all the way! Our poor bums! The bus company tried to pull a fast one, dropping us off at a hotel where they got commision, late that night, but we opted to jump in a Tuk Tuk and choose our ow...

We had a busy last day in Bangkok. First we had to find somewhere to stay..which took longer than we thought, we were like Mary and Joseph asking if there was room at the inn, but luckily we didn't have to sleep in a stable! Laura then had a much needed haircut, which turned out to be a wash, blowdry, wet hair, cut and blowdry again - but wasn't bad for about 5 pounds (that's a first)!! After we collected our Cambodian and Vietnamese visa's, it was time to head...
