CAMBODIA (20/08/2007 - 7/09/2007)

Cambodia is a small and flat country. Unfortunately for
Cambodians the ground is still full of unexploded mines,
hidden by the crazy Pol Pot’s led Khmer Rouge.
From the border we cycled two days and got the
Capital city Phen Phnom.
We spent there some days with a friend of us. Lucia is an
Italian working there for an NGO.
We left our bikes for some days and rented a motorbike.
We went down to the ocean, Kep and Sihanoukville. We took some
days off for swimming in the ocean!!
Again on our bicycles we reached Siem Riep in a few days.
On the way we saw many stilt houses where a lot of children
waved and shouted "HALLO!!".
We went to Angkor's temples. They are very beautiful and
cycling around it's the best way to enjoy them.
We saw the funny monkeys and, unfortunately,
some elephants loaded with tourists.
After four days on the worst road of Cambodia we left Siem Riep for Poipet (Thai border).
