Event No. 1 - Colleague Farewell Party, eventually we went to so-so restaurant chain which famous for rib. The price is high rate but the food is low quality. To make sure everyone can attends this dinner, nothing much I can highlight bout this restaurant. Personal rate: 1.0/5.0Event No.2 – Susu’s Big Day. First and foremost, the car décor is overwhelming. Hahaha…pls check below photo. The wed ceremony is pretty straight forward, no drama action (tissue & tears); everyone is cool and calm with happiness. It does fit Susu’s characteristic. Kudos to Sue & Pete
P/S: Yesterday, I got non-stop marathon eating activities…. Breakfast
Sun set ; sun rise We miss the sun set... so sad...Heavy rain poured and affect our schedule. We almost miss sun rise as our fren, driver pick us late. The tour guide and driver is very nervous and worry, we have to console them that we are fine even though we miss the sun rise. The driver "drive" trishaw very fast & tour guide, Vanna walks super fast and "force" us to take photos from the angle, location and posture that he commanded. It sound very strange. We just follow their pace and fulfill their will to serve. Hundreds of people waiting at the best location. Some of the luxury trip tourist entitle to sit which provided by hotel @ travel agency. During photo session, a lot of ugly faces turns up, many of them fight for best angle to take photos and didn;t move their ass away. Some of them are extremely ridiculous, they just stand there!!! Are they transparent?Are they grow up with eating glass? Dun be surprise, most of them are Europeans.
War museum: After two days of non-stop temples site visit, it become less excited. We decided go to War Museum. Well, it just another "tourist spot". It pretty simple, displaying some of the old tankers, weapons and some photos. War Museum guide is an ex-soldier , a victim from civil war. He keep telling us that his wife was passed away two weeks ago, he needs more SUPPORT. This hint you shall give more tips. It was very irritating and out of generosity, I gave him USD1.00 He stare at me and try to show pity face again to us...Sorry, mate. U deserve what you contribute.Anyhow, we have a great time overtime when the guide was not around, imagine myself become superhero in Command & Conquer...
Transport: A unique view, more than 90% car on the roads were Toyota. Our driver picked us via Toyota Camry at airport ( nothing special, right), then he went home and ride a motorbike to our guest house. Cambodian is very innovative, they create a connector and attached a trishaw on motorbike. The driving speed is slow 30-40 kmph which is good enough for us to sightseeing beautiful street view. Unfortunately, SiemReap street is very dusty ( similar with Mumbai, Bombay), pls be advised to wear mask.
During the temple visit, to satisfy our wish-to-be royal family dream, we had an elephant ride from the main gate. Assuming all the visitors are the peasants and welcoming and celebrate our arrival. Many passers-by take photo, we have to show our diplomatic skills and wave our hands like prince and princess...hahahahaToo many beautiful photos need to share with you all, had made a clip with Khmer traditional music.
Kind advise: if you are not keen on history, religions ,architecture and hate outdoors. Angkor is not the right place for you.
The moment we landed Siam Reap airport, a friendly tour guide , Vanna is waiting us at lobby bay. Vanna is 40 ++ gentleman and always try his best to introduce this beautiful country and cultural for us esp the history and background of Angkor Wat. He is extremely professional , is willing to spend time to share all these Hinduism and Buddhism with us. He share his knowledge bout the structure , system and the moral value behind each crafting to us. My advise is if you happen to visit AngkorWat, you MUST hire a authorized tour guide. If not, you will end up with heading no where and frustrated with all these old buildings. Each wall hidden a beautiful story, I very appreciate Vanna's patience and his sharing. At least, I can figure out and different either the building was built or crafted based on Hinduism or Buddhism. From temples's visit, i found that no matter how smart and creative human being is, nature can defeats us. It just matter of time.
Food: Cambodia food is similar with Thai food and Vietnamese food, Tom Yam, SongTham ( Mango Salad), Spring Roll, Green Curry n etc. The most traditional delicacy is Amok, a very popular Khmer dish, but i don't like it as i not keen sticky rice dishes. After meal, Pineapple, Watermelon, and BANANA is a must for desert. Therefore, don't worry bout digestion problem! The food in Siem Reap consider reasonable since they have "tourist menu", the price is triple high compare with local price. Lucky me, all the meal was included in the tour package, we have 3 main courses plus 1 dessert for every meal. "Tourist price" is USD20++; in contrast, USD8 for local customer.Ironically, the beer in city centre pub area is cheaper than normal street @ restaurant. One mug draught beer only cost USD 0.50 , we love Cambodia beer!!!
An unexpected visitor sneak into my bathroom. I haven't meet him more than 20 years. What a dreadful reunion , Mr Millipede. How can he survive in concrete jungle with full of human waste? Apparently, he is bit drunk and can't walk on the line. Very funny lol... he got so many legs ... then oh... can't walk properly....If he encounter with traffic officer, sure will receive summon.
