Siam Reap Reap Reap Reap


Hey Followers, We are in Cambodia!








In no mans land between Thailand and Cambodia there is a few large casinos exploiting the law as gambling is illegal in both countries



wow thats a lot of buckets



Cant see this to well, however this truck was a police vehicle containing a cage of women - we think they were Cambodians getting deported from Thailand? 



This little guy and many of his friends were coming up to us asking for 1 Thai baht



The sunset from our bus



Leaving the Cambodian border heading for Siem Reap


So we get to Siem Reap  after a 4 hour bus ride and find that this must be one of the darkest cities ever... no street lights - the camera flash was blinding




By day it looks a lot nicer



This is the most popular form of transport - $1usd will get you about anywhere if you haggle right




So we decided to do a cooking class




This was a bargain compared to the ones elsewhere and such fun - the food in Cambodia is really fresh and so goooooood!!!




Hmm this looks safe




This street is called Pub Street - nothing else but pubs..........



Gordon Ramsey




Making fresh curry paste



Shredding Mango for fresh salad







We might as well open a resturant



Fresh spring roles - my favorite thing by far


Amok - Cambodia signature dish - like fried rice except with egg instead of rice




Cambodian Curry



Mango Salad


Now to the market to look around



Hi there, howzitgoing



Just like you would imagine an Asian market to be - very cool



Chickens



Eels 



Siem Reap has been amazing - the people are just lovely and everything is so cheap. the food is incredible. Check in for our next post from Angkor Wat and beyond tomorrow! Off to the southern beaches on an overnight sleeper bus tonight!
