Just About Everything

   This pretty local store on our way to Siem Reap was a life saver! The coconut water was much     needed in the super sultry weather.      Friends Cafe in Phnom Penh, loved the ambience and food and the bustling streets.   This uniquely shaped tree caught my attention and loved these quaint houses on the way to Siem   Reap.                 Tuk Tuks were our life saver in Angkor...shuttling is from one temple to another!  

After the picturesque Neak Pean we headed towards our next destination, Preah Khan temple. Preah Khan temple was built in the 12th century for King Jayavarman VII to honor his father (more in wikipedia ) This temple complex is huge. It was said to have a hundred thousand official and servants. The temple has a Buddhist sanctuary and Hindu temples as well around it.             Entrance to Preah Khan temple Angkor Wat Not really in a good condition, and yet it is so grand. The overgrown trees give it a character and the beautiful structures and carvings that are still holding up, add to the awesomeness of this temple. A must visit. Here are some pictures that are sure to whet your appetite to visit Cambodia :)                                                                       ...

It’s nature.” – Shikoba “Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” – Ashley Smith  These two beautiful quotes sum up exactly how I feel. Nature refreshes me and I can't have enough of it. I love spending time observing nature. The only side effect of drinking up this beauty is the feeling of immense joy:)                    The glorious Sun           ...
