Angkor Wat!

The wife and I packed Audrey with Mum and took off to Cambodia for a short visit.
Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples were surreal. For moments, it seems like like we were in the shoes of Lara Croft in Tomb Raider and/or Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones .


















































So while it looked all mystical in Siem Reap, Phnom Penh conversely was a typical city. Our holiday mood would be later marred by our visit to the Genocidal centres and killing field around the area. It was a chilling and grim experience by the horrifying acts of the Khmer Rouge during the 70s.
