Snoozer in Phnom Penh

Phnom Penh wasn't as dirty or smelly as Siem Reap and had heaps of tuk tuk drivers!  We went to the Russian Markets, the Royal Palace and the Silver Pagoda.  At the last 2 you weren't allowed to wear sleeveless shirts so we had to go and buy a couple T-shirts to wear inside.  The Palace was bright and gold in the part we were allowed in and the silver pagoda had a tiled floor made out of silver!  We went to dinner around the corner at a restaurant with a view of the river.  We sat outside because of the view but it meant that people kept coming up and begging.  I gave a little boy my baguette, and James gave a woman and her son some money because the little boy was so cute.

Next day headed to the Killing Fields in a tuk tuk.  There was a big tower full of skulls on display where you could buy incence and pray for them.  We saw the mass graves where people had been buried.  And then they hustled us in to the gift shop where they had T-shirts saying 'I survived in Cambodia'.  Then our driver asked us if we wanted to go to the shooting range!  Seriously, cambodians have no tact.  You see all these graves and skulls and they ask you if you want to go shoot something now.  At the shooting range you can also fire a rocket launcher.  We headed to go karting, though on the way our tuk tuk got a flat, and then a car backed into it while we were heading down a main street.  James beat me in go karting but didn't lap me, yay!  Since it was Australia Day we headed out to find some Aussies.  We saw a sign that said 'Free vodka shots if your Australian', so headed in there for dinner.  Unfortunately it was only full of poms putting on bad accents to get free vodka and reminiscing about their past Australia Days in Oz.
