Absolutely fantastic photography, but after Italy I am not surprised. so much of what you shot reminded me of when we went to the Olympics in Beijing. Thanks for sharing. Safe trip home.. Pete

Elephants live long... so I wonder if these are related to the ones in Vietnam who knocked down a whole village of huts and ate the bananas Carl and his troops were counting on eating while they were out on patrol. They were not happy with
those thieving elephants...

We are REALLY enjoying your daily comments. We fly off tomorrow for the same Touck tour so all of your advice will be well used. I am also impressed with your web-expertise, embedded maps, photos, etc. all while touring. Well done!

No, walking is the only way. There are several on our trip who simply didn't go to level three, stopping at level two. Still one other stopped at level one, having seen everything up close but not wanting to tackle the stairs. This trip
is not for the faint of heart. There is one couple with us, both have canes. They are troopers but Angkor Wat was challenging for them. They know their limitations.

For the future, think about using Skype on your iPad and phones. Less expensive, great quality, convenient. We try not to fly business class on any American airlines because it does not hold a candle to foreign carriers - for food comfort
or service. Shameful. I took a hard look at my electronics and almost all no longer need converters, only plug adapters because they are international (battery chargers for cameras and Apple products). Less weight to worry about packing.

For the overnight boat adventure, can you take your carry-on luggage, or should I think about something else entirely? We are on the 10/31/13 trip. I suspect it will be wrmer in Hanoi at the very beginning of November.

I highly recommend reading a fictional account of the Khmer takeover. It is based on the true story of the author's life and is a very beautifully written story. It is called In the Shadow of the Banyan Tree. Available at Amazon and also
on Kindle. It may be in the top 10 books I have read in the recent past.

Are there other ways to the top if we don't walk up? Is it worth it if we don't get to the top? We are rethiking the tour since we have been reading your blog.

"Because he is a Buddhist, he feels that in order for him to be happy, he had to let go of the anger he once felt and forgive the Khmer Rouge for their transgressions." This is at the heart of John Lennon's Imagine. As we let go we find p
eace for ourselves, which we can then experience with all people. Read more: http://blog.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/spoonball/5/1358344082/tpod.html#ixzz2IC9k39Xd

Loving every photo and narrative. Suzzi biked for a week through wet VietNam one holiday. She loved Cambodia! Always the children are beautiful. She brought back a lotus leave scarf/shawl. If someone shows it to you, it is quite beautiful a
nd soft and amazing. Thank you for sharing. N

Interesting how developing countries struggle to improve. Thankfully, those unable to find employment do not find their families starving. As you say, we are so fortunate to live in America. Love all your discriptions and comments.
