Bob -- KL Thailand Cambodia Laos pixs 2
In Siem Reap, Bob managed to see smaller wats and didn't have time to see the ultimate Angkor Wat. They had planned to leave Siem Reap that day itself but unfortunately when they got back to the hotel it started raining so hard they had to cancel their plans to leave.
The streets of Siem Reap at night looks rather empty doesn't it ... hmmm
More of the Angkor Wat area ...
I guess its scenery like this that makes the ride all that worth while ...

Bob -- KL Thailand Cambodia Laos Part 5
Bob came back last Friday. He made it home from Siem Reap in three days. What a ride it must have been, I can only imagine how much their butts hurt!! *LOL* Those last 3 days saw 700 to 900kms of travel daily.
They left Siem Reap and travelled some 700 km (or more) to Hua Hin, the next day was Huan Hin to Krabi and the last day was direct to KL from Krabi.
I have downloaded their pictures but can't caption all of them cause am not too sure where all the places were. He narrated some of it but I can't remember now.
This picture was early in their journey and I think they stopped somewhere on the way to Hua Hin for a break. I may be wrong but whatever it is, nice beach!

They stopped for makan here ....

Bob -- KL Thailand Cambodia Laos Part 4
Bob arrived safely in Siem Reap on Monday. They were stuck in Sihanoukville another day on Sunday due to the bad weather. He said it was raining so hard and they couldnt't even go out. Which means they did not see much of the place. He described it as a cowboy town!
The decided to ride the whole 700km to Siem Reap and not stop in Phnom Penh as planned. They spent two nights in Siem Reap and today will be crossing the border back to Thailand. From the map it would be logical for them to take the Poi Pet border.
Not much description has been given to me about Siem Reap except food wise. Bob said they can only eat Indian vegetarian food as everything else contains pork. He took the chance to visit Angkor Wat yesterday but didn't go in. They just took a look at the smaller Wats. He says he is keeping it for another visit with the family. Imagine going all the way there and not seeing one of the seven wonders of the world!
His plan today is to ride from Siem Reap, cross the border and take a 800km ride all the way down to Huan Hin. Loooooong way that is, perhaps they will stop when tired. Can't wait to see his pictures and will post them here.
