CAMBODIA |

I loved Cambodia. The people were warm and friendly, and spoke English surprisingly well. They were also very laid back--they honked their horns only when necessary, and the tuk-tuk drivers actually took “no” for an answer (welcome changes from Vietnam). We visited Phnom Phen and Sihanoukville. To be connected to each destination's webpage, please click on the photos below, or use the navigation bar at the top of the page. |

Note: We skipped Ankgor Wat, since we already visited it in 2001 as part of the post-bar trip. Click here to see 2001 Ankgor Wat photos. |
