20062006. so its 20/ 06/ 2006. yup. thats nice too. =))
yup. im back from cambodia. =) 5 days 4 nights. so yup. quite okay. shall eleborate. first day. err. reached air port at like 4am. woke up at 2 plus. then left at around 6 plus. reached at singapore 8. its 7am for them. one hour difference. went to siem reap first. its one of cambodia's province. the place is worse then china. its like so many people begging. we had a tour guide and one driver as well as a van to ourselves. yeaps =)). siem reap has no brick houses. its like all those kampong like houses. so first day, went to hotel then rest and watched abit of tv. after that went to visit the silk farm. the silk farm is interesting. it brings us through the whole process on how silk its formed and yah. so its like. they grow plants for the silk worms to eat. feed them and they become pupa. thereare two colours of pupa. one of which is dark yellow and the other lighter. so they will spin the silk when it is darker yellow. its called the cocoon. then how to get the silk out is put in hot boiling water then take it out slowly. there are two silk. the rough and the fine ones. yup. then they weave. the second on is artisen D' angkor. its where sculptures are made. its where the handicap work. the things overall are quite nice. after that went for lunch. then met this lady cycling with a whole load of coconut. so decided to buy one. its nice. but a little bitter because its local. then lunch was alright. after that, went back to hotel for ceyestial or something like that. as the temperature was about 42 degrees in the afternoon, its where people stop working at 1pm till like 3pm to rest because its very hot. so we went back to rest. then went to floating village on tonle sap lake. the floating village is very special. in the lakes, it is like a village. its extremely interesting. we rode on a boat. there are people with deformities and those poorer ones begging all along the lake. we saw a pig style and a church in the lake itself. interesting yah. its just like a village. just that it is in the water. special. =). went shopping at a market after that where we bought souviners there. then went for dinner which was buffet. there was performance there. so watched till their local time 8.30pm, our time 9.30pm. i was like. AHHH, zhi zun hong yan last episode!!. hahaha. went back hotel after that. yeaps. so second day woke up at like 7 plus. visited south gate of angkor thom, Bayon, Baphuon. we visited them before lunch. its rather interesting seeing three legged trees. the south gate was a gate where there are two long satues along the gate after coming out. there are angels on one side and devils on the other holding on to a long snake. there were 54 on each side. 5 + 4 = 9. thats their auspicious number. after that went for lunch and back at shopping. was at the local market. me and kor bought the same pair of shoes. =). ma went for massage while me,dad and kor went to this place called the blue pumkin where the place rocks! three levels. first is normal, second for smoking with no chairs but bean bag and third for non smokers with a settee. had ice cream. yeahh. so after that went to royal enclosure phimeanakas, elephant terrance, terrace of leper king and watched angkor wat sunset at bakheng mountain temple. so at angkor wat, there are three levels. we went up the first and second one together with the tour guide and parents. the third one was 70 dgrees to the ground. so it was so steep that our parents didnt dare go up. me and kor went up, went around and we had to queue to go up. its damn long queue lar. going down was a little more risky then going up. up was just so easy. down was a little scary. but had railings. so yeah. we and kor went crazy. went out all the way our of the place and walked back in. hahahahaha. then watched the sunset at the so called libaray. the sun wasnt nice. boooo. hahahaha. then went for dinner and back. next day, third day had to wake up at 6.15am their time. was transfered to bus station by the big main bus cause our diner, razli was busy, had another tour. so went on to phnom penh. its the city of cambodia. it is 340 km away from siem reap and the estimate time was 6 hours but we reached at 5. there was a break in between where we bought fried crikets to eat. its damn nice lar. X). so phnom penh is better then siem reap because there are finally buildings!!! hahaha. so first day visited the independent monument which we could not enter due to some security reasons. royal palace where the king really stays there even now. place was quite big rather interesting. was told that thailand had that too. oh yah, the king is currently 54 years old who is single. one thing bad of the palace. it is damn crowded cause we went on a sunday!! so every one was pushing here and there. after that went to silver pagoda, which is in the royal palace but the floor is silver. interesting yah. there are like 2000 over diamonds, dunno how much gold and silver. went to another local market where i ate corn there and pregnant egg. its nice. =)). ate snails on the road side too. its nice!!! then went for dinner which was at a very nice cafe. but out of 5 dishes, i only like 3. =). after that went to mekong river. took a few shots and went back to the hotel. nexy day was the second last day but the last day we could do things. visited wat phnom, toul sleng museum, national musiem and killing fields. wat phnom was a place where there are two temples up there. there are two budhas where was found by dunno what lady of phnom penh in the mekong river from laos. boy, girl friends who visit the temple will break up because the lady is single. but with family and couples can. rumours yah. so killing fields is where we see skulls of people and holes at the back of the place where people died during the pol pot region. there were around 2000 who died. but some survived. they were killed by being tied up and kneeing down before a hole and using a bamboo stick hit the head and pushed down the hole. yup. so visited the toul sleng museum. it was once a school but tranfered to the place whedre people get killed during the pol pot region again. they were tortured. in the block A, there were even picutres of how they look like when they died. block B showed the pictures of those people who died and some are as young as 3 months old. aww. then block C showed the cells of the people. its damn small. first level made of brick for man, second made of wook for females and third children i guess. block D showed those people's comments and those who are still alive as in the staff and soldiers. out of so man caught, only 7 were scot free as they were people like artist, designer, carpenter who could help them. in the block C was paintings of what happened by one of the 7. the national museum was rather boring lar. lol. after that went central market which closes at 5 and we reach at 5!! AHHH. but bought 2 pair of socks and one billabong shirt. yeah. haha. didnt buy much this time. went to mekong river again before sunset. ate pregnant egg again. pregnant egg has a chick or duckling inside the egg shell. went for dinner with three levels. first, in the open, second normal and third the japanese style. me and kor wanted the third so were separated from ma and pa cause they insisted on the normal. went back hotel had a so called family meeting which turned out to be crapped. slept. woke up at 5am their time. left cambodia at 8. 40 am. was damn tired lar. so slept. reached s'pore and 11 plus singapore time. so yup. specstacles broke on second day. and today went to make new one. degree increase like siao about to reach 200.
