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.
