London-Sing-Temples

Fag stop in Singapore airport, flight delayed 2 hours coincidence missed.



But Sing airlines had new tickets ready for us, lunch, taxi and hotel to nap for 4 hours.. unfortunately we still arrived at 6 pm of 10 am to Phnom Pehn. They also fed us like pigs...


Caught a taxi for the what was supposed to be 3 hours journey to Siem Reap.


The drive was instead 6 hours, after 2 minutes we sort of realised that he could have kidnapped us, shoot us, raped us or for what was visible in the dark road with no signs, taken us anywhere.


We also came up with the brilliant idea that staying awake in turn would have solved the problem.. errr.. it gaves us allucinations... I was soon seeing dragons crossing the road ( they were cows ) and all sort of things.. that for most part were however real.


1 am.. Arrival at Siem Reap, so we gathered not because you could see a thing but from a sign saying "wat" that the headlights happen to illuminate.


Obviously the hotel didn't remember the booking and my printed mail confirmation only provided for a roof in the nearby guesthouse where a 10 cm mosquito was happily splattered on the wall.. But it had a bed and we badly needed one.
