Siem Reap

We got the train to Aranyprathet, a tuk tuk to the boarder and then walked across to the Cambodian side, getting our visas along the way. We then got a taxi to our hotel in Siem Reap, which too about 2 hours. Once we arrived we went straight out for tea at Johnny Walkers as all we had eaten all day was sausage on a stick and some horrible rice. The first full day we spent walking around Siem Reap. We went Wat Preah Prom Rath, a small and mostly red and gold temple. Next we called off at a butterfly garden where we saw some big and very pretty butterflies and we saw a lizard eating one of them. We also went to a children’s soft play area which was ace. There was a little battery powered motorbike there that Jack loved. There was also an arcade there which kept the adults entertained. Mum kicked Stuarts butt on the Street Fighter game and he wasn’t impressed at all.

With my birthday coming up I was given a choice, I could either have a present or a day to remember, but because of the weather if I chose the special day it would be the day before my birthday. Straight away I chose the day to remember and I can’t wait!
