Hello again,

Here are some photos of our time in Cambodia. Quite a lot of the things we saw were not really things to take pictures of as they were not very nice. I hope you enjoy looking at the photos of the temples though. They were amazing to visit; very big and beautifully decorated.

Take care, Miss T

The fermented rice juice is placed onto steamers for about 7 seconds. Once the round rice paper is cooked, it is taken off and placed on a rack to dry.

It is Saturday! In England you would all be having fun with your family or friends and in Cambodia they still go to school. They only get Sunday off.

'Apsara's' were seen as the most beautiful ladies. They were very special and highly honored.
