The Long & Winding Road

Checking out Lonely Beach

THAILAND | Tuesday, 9 December 2008 | Views [438] | Comments [1]

Today we went down to the beach to explore the area.  Ended up just lounging at the beach all day, relaxing, swimming and playing frisbee with some girls we met on the beach.  Were heading into Cambodia in about a week so I'm reading a book about the Khmer Rouge takeover written by a survivor of the Khmer Rouge period in Cambodia.  It's pretty crazy the life that the Cambodian people had to endure during Pol Pot's rule.  It should be very interesting, sad and depressing once we see where all the horrors took place when we get there.  I'm really looking forward to seeing Angkor Wat though. It just looks amazing in the pictures.  The evening today consisted of walking around town, checking out a pretty impressive fire show, downing some buckets and finished the night off at a place called the Magic Garden which was a pretty cool spot with huge beds right inside the place to lounge on.

I saw Angkor Wat on the Amazing Race - you're right, it looks amazing! The contestants had to go to this weird echo chamber, where you pound your chest and you can hear it echoing!!!
