Now in Seim Reap










Hello!
We ended our stay in Koh Samui with a few nights with some young Aussie guys, Daryll & his brother Ben, completely opposite but lovely guys, see attached photo. Then off to Bangkok to meet up with Ali & Frosty again and also Ian before he & I headed to Seim Reap and the others flew home.
Beautiful buffet at the Sheraton, as always and an early rise for Mandy who had an 8am flight.
The first 3 days here have been exhausting to say the least, weather is extremely hot to the point of 2 sets of clothes per day and drinking 3-4 litres of water as you just continually sweat.
We have seen most of the temples at Angkor; Angor Wat, Bayon, Angkor Thom, Ta Prom, Preah Khan andalso some outlying ones, Banteay Srei (my favourite) and had a mountain walk to get to Kbal Spean, which was hell.
We have since deided to have 2 days off as both of our knees are shot. We are going to the orphange tomorrow with Mr John Teng, our guide, to take rice and donate them some money to buy fish & pork etc.
We then have Friday & Saturday with John then I'm off to Phnom Penh.
Will write more later.
Cheers!
