Siem Reap, Cambodia Trip 21st Sep - 25th Sep 08
Day 3rd, 4th and 5th. Did nothing much for the rest of the 3 days except just plain chilling out, relaxing and shopping. ^^ And of course everyday, we had our fix of Lucky gelato after our daily hotel breakfast.
Sherman's. This jealous little man actually got the lady to put this spongy cake on his ice cream after he saw that i got the lady to put the almond biscotti on mine (BELOW) hehe` We're soooo gay hahah` 
The extensive number of flavors they have ^^We went to get bathing suits so we can swim in the hotel pool on the 3rd day. ^^ hehe And we did swam on the 3rd and 4th day. The gurls went to do manicure and pedicure after gelato and the guys headed to swim and they became as red as lobsters.. o.O
Even sherman did manicure the next day..
Lovely nails he's got
I love this salon. cuz guess what? A Classic manicure/Pedicure definitely cost more than 20 bucks in SG. But here in this salon in Lucky Mall (Not ulu roadside ones). They use fabulous machines and tools, totally like those in SG and OPI Colors too. They only charge 5 USD for Manicure and 6 USD for Pedicure.MOREOVER, they do the usual trimming and buffing, throw in clearing of cuticles, smearing hand lotion on your hand and also hand scrub plus massage!!!! OMG where can u get tt for 5 USD? Totally pampered ourselves. =)) Wheeeeeeeeee` Bought OPI colors too at only 10 USD per bot. Very very worth it cuz i've used it a couple of times already after i come back from Cambodia. And it's really long lasting! hehe`
On the 3rd night, Ah qing, heather and me went to the Angkor night market ourselves. ^^
I was helping this lady sell hehe`
We bought paintings too. ^^ from this guy
Shots taken at random meals:
We went back to the same place to eat again cuz their horfun is very nice! And chilli, very very lethal.
Check out the finished plates of fried rice too... sweet.
The legendary seafood horfun. hehe` Can hardly see the horfun though, cuz there are alot of ingredients.
On the last day, we walked randomly and saw this restaurant and visited it.. Looks rather posh too.. We had a very early dinner here.
Funny printings on the menu. o.O Weird weird english.
Sat in the 2nd storey.
haha cute shot of sherman..
We ordered alot of nice food!!! hehe`
The above is named 'Roti Chicken with French Fried'. hehe`Before the food is here, we were camwhoring and especially the guys cuz they're sooo red like lobsters. And we certainly didn't like the feeling of 4 person staring at us while we eat. hmmmmmmm` o.O
Ah Qing had noodles in soup and can't eat anything much cuz she was having a very very bad toothache.
Lol so cute............ o.O
Whose manicured hands are the nicest? hee` Mine's the darkest shade of pink.
After this meal, we went to get panadol for Ah Qing.
Went to this Clinic/Hospital. Was waiting inside the tuktuk for chris and Ah qing to go see the doctor for the medicine. Ended up the doctor was soooooo nice he gave ah qing 4 tablets of paracetamol to last her for 2 dosages until she gets back to SG the next morning.
I can't remember which day was it, but we actually celebrated Sherman's and Ah Qing's Birthdays. Chris lured Sherman away, and Ah Qing was naturally in her own room and didn't go out at all cuz she was having a bad toothache. Heather and me and Uncle Tony then went to Lucky mall to get the birthday cakes and also a whole BBQ chicken.
Made cup noodles in Uncle Tony's room for everybody and also standby for the 2 bday babies to come in. We've also made hard boiled eggs and thrown sausages into the cup noodles. Somemore it was “过桥米线” that we had hehe` Totally needed for birthdays hehe`Heather armed with camera and waiting for them to come in.
Expression of shock and happiness ^^
Blowing out the candles ^^
See how sumptuous our cup 'mee sua' are.. =))On the last day we did our last minute shopping. Went to visit the Central Market and also Old Market which was about to close down soon.
One of the interesting stall in Old Market.After which we visited the Angkor Night Market and chill out in the pub there.
Very very lovely interior deco. Small pub but very cosy too.
Love to sit and just relax and chat with each other.
I had my dose of Long Island Tea.
Sherman had his Lychee Martini i think.Wasn't very lethal but the lychee is! Cuz the fruit is like totally infused with alcohol. o.O
Very affordable too. Like costing about 5 SGD for my long island tea if memory doesn't fail me.Everyone was zenning when we were sitting and chillin cuz we were all totally shagged out.
The next day, we woke up quite early and prepared for our flight back to Singapore.
We transited at Phnom Penh first for 45 minutes before we fly back to Singapore. And of course we made time to grab a bite of Foccacia sandwich in Phnom Penh airport before we boarded.
Satiated and happy!SHOPPING IN CAMBODIA
The stuff here in Cambodia are mainly handicrafts and similar to those u find in Thailand. Alot of places to buy shawls and stuff made from thai silk. Actually bought alot of post it notes with a silk handmade outer covering and also shawls. hehe` Gotten an LV Damien speedy bag and a patent black long wallet for myself. =)) Real ones lol` Don't squirm at me.
Total i've bought 4 bags on this trip, 1 LV, 1 straw basket, and 2 with embroideries. As usual gotten alot of cup noodles back =X And during the night where only the 3 of us gurls went to the night market, we visited this stall which helps out the poor women in Cambodia, especially those widowed or abused. Bought a notebook with a nice cover, hanging trio photo frames and also an elephant plush toy cum towel holder.
Really love this trip ^^ Cuz i love sighseeing sooooo much.
