All sorts of tempura and fritters

Even goreng pisang~

Fried squid~ slurp~

Siem Reap 1 - Ton Le Sap Floating Market

It took at least 5 hours from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, if you take express van of course, which normal bus usually takes up to 6 hours. Not to mention 5 hours of immobilization, the bumpy road is enough to kill. By bumpy I mean a constant oscillation for 5 hours! Siem Reap has one of the oldest city in South East Asia with Angkor, bearing witness to the rise and fall of a great kingdom. So, after 5 solid hours of torturing, we finally reached Siem Reap Bus Station. Bear in mind that different company stop at different stations....yeap, the bus system is that disorganized~ Luckily the hotel was great(the owner was not~pfft~), with great receptions and comfy room~

Tuk-tuk picking us up

We rent a van enough for 12 persons with 35 USD per day~ First stop, some Khmer lunch~

Everything is in USD......can be tricky sometimes~~~

Khmer style green curry...not spicy but very similar to the Malaysian's style~ 6 USD~

Khmer style fried rice.......mediocre~ 6USD~

Ton Le Sap Lake~ I swear I heard it somewhere during history or geographic lessons~

12 USD per person just to get on this speed boat to visit the floating market(totally not worth it~ Why? We will see~~)

That whole piece of land belongs to a Vietnamese Cemetery....Interesting enough, they spend few months under water during the rainy season~~~(Scuba diving~)

Just 19 year-old student.....earn 15 USD per month~ Where did all these money goes?!

You get alot of such "floating market" around......this is impressive, the little girl just jump onto our boat with 1 whole box of drinks~

A missionary orphanage and school~

One of the best kept buildings around~

A government built school~

The restaurant, souvenir shop, and crocodile farm all in one~

All lazily sleeping~

Spooky~

Some specimen~

Could be quite scary as exhibition at home~

Another boat approaching from far away in the middle of the lake...wait a minute! Whats that on the little girl shoulder?!

Relatively larger-than-her-phyton~~~ *shiver* hate reptiles!

Ahh~ Just forget about class, lectures and study for 1 whole week~ Yawn~~~
