Cambodia With Love

Pictures from our travels around Asia. First stop: Cambodia. A country that has plenty to offer besides Pol Pot and Khmer Rouge... What about white sanded beaches in the south, culinary treasures all over, friendly locals everywhere, The Mekong River in between, jungles and forests right in front of you, land mines hidden somewhere in the ground and the chance to fire a bazooka when you want? Ha ha. The country of craziness. We had a fabulous time. Indeed.

Enjoy the pics:
