Average Pounds Of Venison On A Deer

a capital worthy of the name. It seems that the city was the pearl of Asia before the Pol Pot regime. We've been here three days and really like the atmosphere. Much more open than Bangkok, although it does not lack action. The children are really cute and some have many tricks to try to sell books, DVDs and other items. Maybe the fact that we found here bursts of French culture and language we've deceived? At least that is the mood of the people?

few visits already:

Wat Phnom Pagoda is in the center surrounded large trees which are the delight of the tiny republic of macaques who settled there. Warning! Do not get too close because the babies were quickly made to show the teeth. Cambodians seem to like to spend some time in the park. It offers to free caged birds for $ 1 in exchange for good karma (?).

15 km from Phnom Penh is Choeung Ek a place that reflects the barbarism and cruelty committed by the clique of Pol Pot. This extermination camp was 20,000 victims: men, women and children, including foreigners who failed to flee Cambodia. The evidence is horrific in the 129 graves and the excavation of approximately 8,000 human skulls and other bones. Remémmorer for victims as well as 2 million Cambodians were killed, the site now houses a memorial tomb built in 1988. If you want more information, see: http://www.cekillingfield.com/

National Museum of Phnom Penh : The Khmer art. Under the influence of two major Indian religions (Hinduism and Buddhism) the Khmer artists have created countless works of art depicting their deities, temples, and other symbolic objects for ceremonial use. However, this art is not a copy of the Indian style but a transformation original and clean. We can see in this museum complex objects with deep symbolism, I love it! The three periods are distict I. Pre-Angkorian (VI-VIII e th century). Angkorian Period II (IX e - e XIII century). III. Post Angkor (fourteenth century-present).

The best pieces: Ganesh with four arms seated on a turtle, Bayon style, late-twelfth s early thirteenth century Protector and preserver Vishnu, 2nd halves of VIè.s. While sandstone. Rama, hero of the Ramayana in schist. Siva or Shiva, God destroys the world. Cabin of junk-19è.s. rattan wood carved traditionnels.Malheureusement animal motifs, no pictures allowed inside. A photo of a statue outside above.

Tuol Seng : a former school converted into a prison (S-21) during the regime of the Khmer Rouge used to torture and kill all those who were against Angkar and innocent victims. Pictures of those who perished (adults, youth and children) are exposed and the individual cells and group were preserved with the tools of torture. Metal bars that the students used for exercise were used for torture victims to hang by the arms and then plunge their heads in a tub of dirty water. Cons below a picture of prison rules. The executioners kept scrupulously photos of victims before and after torture, a documentation center was retained. A place murky and confusing evidence that humans are capable of anything. When you see such atrocities, one wonders if the man is an animal or, more likely, to a lower rank.

Continuous Heart Burn

From Koh Kong, I've written anything. Because I took the pace Cambodian ... hehehe. Judgement of 10 days Sihan oukville too long. A city not very interesting cultural perspective. Nothing else to do than screw around, eating, grilling and enjoying the belly of the sea We are Canadian / Quebecois seem quite tanned lie when people ask what country we come from. Cambodians still a bit puzzled by that explains our origins! Kampot is

is nice and safe (except for packs of dogs that compete in their territory all night ... ayayay, what décapitage This little town''''muddy when it rains and dusty otherwise remains sympathetic, a good place to begin to grow accustomed to the country before heading to the capital (Phnom Penh). Roads ... a road you say?
20 km from Kampot is the Bokor National Park on a mountain 1080 m above sea level. Several Khmer were killed during construction of the road to the summit which began in the early year s twenty. Today, the road is accessible by car but it is in very bad condition . Go hop on the pickups, to the ruins recent ... Was originally designed in 1943 a royal palace, the Palais Black ... it was white and decorated with ebony, with poximité is the house of the concubines. At the climax, we discover the ruins of a small community of French colonial built for luxury and the game: you can visit what remains of the Bokor Palace Grand (grand colonial hotel) casino and the old church . On the mountain, you can enjoy the cool climate and spectacular views of the jungle and the sea coast and can even see the island of Phu Quoc , delighted to Cambodia by the Vietnamese. It is said that King has moved from the time the casino and the old casino is now a hotel, since suicidal losers headed for the gulf for a leap into the jungle! There's nothing left here except qqs Khmer soldiers supposedly looking for landmines. History has made sure that the revolution and the battles with the Vietnamese destroyed almost everything. The energy here is special. Then a mini trek in the jungle, a boat trip on the river (river) whose water is renewed by changing seasons, the sea and the source of the mountain.

Detour Kep, it's worth it! A stop at the orphanage with the children laugh and give qqs clothes too. Then, the market, you eat a cast of seasoned crab with garlic and lemongrass or if you prefer, pepper fresh flavor of the region. Succulent. Short visit to the bat caves and cave elephants with young guides, a lovely time with the children who deserve qqs thousands riels for their guidance. On the road, the farmers harvest the rice and dry it in the sun. A stop to gas and observe a van full of live pigs, well packed in individual cages with straw.

Tomorrow ns leave for Phnom Penh . The holidays are approaching! I miss you: familia, friends and colleagues! Write to me, I'd hear from you and know a little about what happening at the other end! It seems you do not miss beautiful snow this year.

Kampot Koh Kong - Cambodia

We rented a motorbike and went in search of waterfalls Ta Tai. Challenge: there is no indication understands that, in addition to that the counter km does not work. Woohoo! We found ourselves in the forest of Cardamom mountain range, great! It is the largest area of tropical forest or forest Moonson''Rain Forest''preserved in Asia, apart from that of Myanmar / Burma. The mountains, open spaces, a newly built road that runs through the rocks and vegetation. Then more road, sand and pebbles with hot orange colors through a winding path where one sees on the horizon, trees and sky. No falls, no water, low on fuel, qqs bananas in the bag. Turn back or continue? More ... Same scenario in the middle of nowhere. A van arrives, it beckons to stop: they are soldiers. Using non-verbal language; bike tied to the back of the van, en route to the next town (?). We drive qqs minutes, passes a young man on a motorcycle loaded with merchandise ... a gallon of fuel. We stop and buy the fuel that pours with a rubber hose. It takes money, soldiers take the fuel and a bag of vegetables from the young man. Will they share the money later? No falls today but a bit of adventure to tell! Further, hungry, I ate a plate of rice and what should be the chicken but not enjoyed it much, much more and it was not shredded beef judging by the color or the taste of pork. Mmmmm ....

3rd day, more knowledgeable, the falls are beautiful and we have for ourselves. We offer a huge rock in the shade. We swam in a pool and have received massages water. It was worth the search!

2nd day, the adventure continues

I am writing to Sianoukville (4hrs boat from Koh Kong). I want to tell you about our Arrival in Cambodia. So Koh Kong border city of the South is also the name of an island (many people think they are over but the island is uninhabited, although one can spend the day is also the name of the province). Arriving at the customs, the action begins! The officers lead us in a little room to issue the visa (30 days) and most importantly, try to make us pay more than the amount stated in the guides, or $ 20US, they require Bhats 1200 (37 U.S. $). I add here, the currency is the Riel. Do not panic, Felix has handled the situation with a beautiful smile and great conversation. It must say they are daunting but not aggressive, that they earn about $ 40 a month while they spend p'tites speeds tourists (they apparently do very often). After a mini-survey on their names, their families, exchanging smiles and even''jokes,''they brought down their aspirations for $ 25US. We remained undaunted: we knew the week before, a passenger had paid the official. After 30 min, their patience exhausted, we got in line paying $ 20US. Word up! By welcoming, one of the officers gave us fruit! Paradoxical.

My opinion on the subject: Win $ 30 per month, sad and touching, everyone agrees. Nevertheless, it is not bilking the tourists that the situation will improve. The effect is harmful because this kind of attitude scares and discourages many travelers on their trip to Cambodia. One can imagine what will the rest if the officials are crooked! Is harmful, being the first contact with foreign countries. If they were not trying to cheat us, people would feel safer to come spend their money here. Also, give money to children who beg does not help, there are adults who are waiting behind the money scrupulously while the child could attend school and not the street. It is better to give disabled (victims of landmines) to the monks who hold the charities and orphanages.

KHAO WAI PARADISE

On the island of Khao Wai, I discovered ataraxia. This little corner of paradise located on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand has given us peace (no cars) and harmony in nature. No warranty problems! In the sea, the waves whisper a melody that soothes the infinite heart and mind. The water is turquoise and clear, the shells are everywhere and we meet different aquatic species (under water and ... on the plate!). Khao Way paradise (the area that we chose on the island) has a forty simple bungalows spread over about 4 km. Not many travelers but enough to make interesting knowledge such as Jonhatan (UK), Graciano and Lucy (Italy), Anna (Germany) and a couple of Belgians: Frouke and Steven. Travel trade and gourmet dinners shares. Only inconvenience: the invasion russse. To 10hrs, a tour arrives on the dock with tourists, Russian for many of them. They remain qqs hours lounging on the sand and take pictures "mode" under the palms (For women: coconut in one hand,''''splashage water with other / Men speedo molding and bottle of beer). It's fun! We escape this part of the day at the strip of beach reserved for residents. Tourists then return to 14hs ... woohoo!

Yoga in the morning, snorkeling, cannot, reading, discussion, the days go by with serenity, is rejuvenating. A wooded path leads to the other side of the island to admire the sunset. After dark, the stars twinkling in the dark aparaissent. Everything seems so dreamlike, yet it is a reality filled with magic and ... love! CHOOK DII (Many of Happiness!)
