Helloo :) we've spent the last couple of days in the capital city Phnom Penh and are having a blast being nice and touristy and snapping photos of every poor unsuspecting Cambodian who crosses our path! Phnom Pehn is really pretty complete with beautiful royal palace (view from our bedroom was rather spectacular) and exercise machines along the riverfront..not enticing enough to get us on them though :) had a sobering morning yesterday at the killing fields and S21 prison but were very pleased to be able to meet one of the 7 survivors (now 83) and get a nice signed book! Loved the history side were are both shocked we knew nothing of Cambodian history before..we were tempted to email Mrs Phillips informing her that she MUST do an assembly on it..but not tempted enough in case we had to do it! Had lunch at the scrummy modern Blue Pumpkin restaurant and finished the evening watching Cambodian kickboxing (made it onto TV :) ) and joining in a mass outdoor dance session by the river. Oo and had heart and teddy shaped rice that evening!!
Today we journeyed to Sikanoukville and were greeted with sights of white beaches and crystal blue sea complete with authentic Cambodian boat on the horizon..heaven! Currently praying to Buddha that we get a tan..
