Hi!

Well, it's been a long 36 hours. We left Siem Riep at 7am yesterday and travelled via 2 buses, 2 minibusses and a taxi (mainly the buses) to Chang Mai in NW Thailand, arriving at around 7am this morning.

As a result we're both completely knackered. I put my head down this afternoon at about 1pm and was asleep for 3 hours! Early night tonight I think.

Regarding Cambodia I'm sure that the rest of it wasn't quite as bad as Siem Riep (hopefully!) but we took a bit of a disliking to it and decided to go to Laos (which had been bumped off the agenda to spend a couple of weeks in Cambodia) and enjoy the (supposedly nicer) people and tubing instead. Siem Riep just didn't seem to be much fun, everyone wanted dollars from us by the handful and now we're back in Thailand everything seems nice again.

Sleep soon!

Clarification
To clarify (Mum) - we didn't go tubing in Cambodia but will be doing so in Laos. This involves sitting in an inflated tyre inner tube and floating down a river!
