Hey guys - I'm keeping a blog as best I can while travelling in Cambodia.  Lots of pics!

Great photos, DS!

My wife and I loved visiting Cambodia, it was hauntingly beautiful.

The brutal, ovenlike heat and humidity of Siem Reap definitely slowed the blogging down

Two more installments:

Beautiful pics DS.
I have always wanted to visit Angkor-Wat, but never made it there.
One of these days.... I guess.

We travel fairly often to Hong Kong, so Cambodia was added as a side tour this time.  If you do it like that, it's not that much more (at least that's how I justified it )

Awesome stuff, as usual.

And appreciated.

Unfortunately, that's it for Cambodia.  The next two weeks are Hong Kong.  If you plan to visit Cambodia other than Jan/Feb, make sure you are heat tolerant.  35C with 90+ humidity just wiped me out!

Yes - apparently they are known commonly as "snake birds" sometimes.
