Last Day in Cambodia

We're on a bus leaving Cambodia and going to Thailand right now.  Overall, I can say that I really liked Cambodia and of the 4 countries I've been on during this trip, it was my favorite.  The people were very nice - the hotel staff, Net - our tuk tuk driver, and Pau - karma in little girl form.  The food was delicious - Khmer cooking and especially the $1 street sandwiches.  The souvenirs were dirt cheap - $5 for two shirts and two scarves.  We were here for only 3 days, went to two museums, traveled across the country, saw a sunrise over ancient ruins, visited 9 temples and a landmine museum, saw the sunset over ancient ruins, went to a night market and bought cheap gifts, and enjoyed good food ... all that and I spent $99 of my $100 budget.  

I'm a bit sad that we didn't spend more time here, and I'm not sure what else I would see if I come back.  Not worth the visit just to hang out for me.  Today is a bus to Bangkok, another bus own south, then a ferry to Ko Tao.  Then it's a day over scuba diving tomorrow.

Cambodia gets high marks on the must visit scale!
