• Cambodia - day 9

    June 13, 2019 in Laos ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    After going to bed at 3, we had to be up at 4 for Angkor Wat! Headed onto our bus and drove to Angkor Wat for sunrise. It was absolutely beautiful and the sunrise was amazing. We then walked around with our amazing guide hearing all about the history and he explained what each part meant. Got blessed by monks and we took some panoramas where we got in the photo 3 times. After this we had some breakfast and headed to the next place, Angkor Thom temple - this was my favourite with all the hidden faces! After this we went to Ta Prohm where the trees have grown through all the stone which was incredible. We had the funnest group of people aswell so had such a good day - the hostel manager came with us and we had to wear the funky flash packers T-shirt’s as they took promo pics for the hostels Angkor wat trip - was actually really fun! We then headed back to the hostel at about midday after an amazing morning. Packed our bags and checked out! Said bye to the Mui Ne boys and headed to the airport to catch our flight to Luang Prabang - Laos! This was the funniest thing ever - there were 4 passengers on our WHOLE flight! We could sit anywhere and instead of making the announcement ‘flight VA303 ready for boarding’, they announced each of our names like ‘Carly Munn please come to gate 4 for boarding’ was Hilarious - we had a member of cabin crew each!! Got a tuktuk to our hostel Sunrise Riverside which was so cute and met up with Lauren our bestie from Australia who we are gonna try to Laos with! (So random we had the same dates!) met her friends Liv, Matt, ryan and Jacob from Thailand and spent the evening all chatting! Mils and I had an early night after our 45 mins sleep last night!Read more
