Introduction

I intend to use this blog to post some updates and photos from our trip to Singapore for Alex's 50th birthday celebration and then our tour round Cambodia.

We hope to see sights like this ...

and this ....



and share some of our own photos as we go.

For Alex's birthday, after the all important cocktails in Singapore, we're off to Nikoi Island for a party. Then Claire and I are off to Cambodia.

Our itinerary in Cambodia with See Cambodia Differently is broadly as shown in the map below with a few extra bits added:


We start in Phnom Penh and a trip to the killing fields.  We then go up country in search of wildlife: dolphins, elephants and a gibbon safari.  Finally, to Seam Reap, including Ankor Wat of course, but also learning to cook a Khmer curry.

It's getting very exciting, but also scary how close we are to leaving with no real preparation yet. Looking forward to only needing shorts and a t-shirt rather than woolly, coat and an umbrella.  Bye for now.
