Phnom NOM NOM NOM Penh

Off we trotted then to Cambodia's capital Phnom Penh for some city sightseeing. We found some lodgings in the Lakeside backpacker area, which had a sort of grotty bohemian chic to it, with its bars full of board games, cushions and finally brandy! We even found a place which provided a pub quiz and a Sunday roast :)

Our Phnom Penh residence

After settling in and getting to know our area, we set off into the city centre to visit the City's main cultural attractions:

Vietnam/Cambodia Friendship Monument

- O Russai Market which stank of fish and scared Jenny!

 - There were live chickens in bundles!

The National Museum (+ Matt)

We visited our third Grand Palace in SE Asia so far, in the middle of a huge thunderstorm. See below for impressive buildings 1 through 3:

The 'Chocolate Stupa'

I'm a little Teapot

After this we took a break from visiting cultural attractions and civil war atrocity sites (not pictured) with a relaxing dip in the pool : )

Now its off to Saigon, see you there!
