Cambodia Trip Review Day 6

--Morning @ Golden Mango Inn--
It's time to leave, and I wished I could stay for one more day to complete my Grand circuit temples. (Now I have the perfect reason to return to Siem Reap next time..hehe!) On our first day in SR, we asked Sony about Mekong Express's bus tixs. However, Sony got bad experiences with the company's buses, so he only got Paramount Angkor Express's tixs. Alright, we wld just stick with it.
Our gifts from the guest house, their bed runners.
Paramount Angkor's shuttle bus came to fetch us from our guest house at 8 a.m plus. There was a small traffic jam when we reached the bus terminal. So they got a common bus terminal for buses leaving Siem Reap! Haha! Our bus was supposed to depart at 8.30a.m, but it was delayed for 20 mins or so. The bus was newer, but don't expect other things to be clean. For example, the curtains. Lots of stains on them..yaks~ This time round, cold bottled drinks were served to us, and the driver played Khmer pop music too. (You wld be amazed that many Khmer songs were actually from Mandopop & hokkien songs!) They also played super old Jackie Chan's movies dubbed in Khmer. So now u know how famous Jackie is. He's influential in all parts of Asia~
--On our way to Phnom Penh--
Check out the grass plains in the countryside. Hardly any tall trees~
--Phnom Penh International Airport--
We reached PP at 2.45p.m and headed straight to the airport. According to E.W, the airport looked very different compared to 3 yrs ago. (E.W had been to Phnom Penh in 2006). Yeah, there were aerobridges now, and the airport was renovated.
The check-in area.
--Lunch @ Airport--
There was only 1 cafe selling food in the departure area. So we had our light lunch at "Angkor Pub". I had their bolognese spaghetti and it was just alright. So I did not take any pics of it.
Part 2 of my lunch was this dessert above. Lolz! "Dairy Queen" was just beside "Angkor Pub" and the girls already went gaga over the ice creams. This was my mocha almond fudge blizzard and it costed 2USD. U might be wondering why the blizzard was held upside down. If the ice cream falls out, we can get a free one. Lolz~~~ Anyway, the blizzard was yummy~
--Silkair MI 607--
Departing Phnom Penh at 5.55p.m. Just as the plane was preparing to take off, there was a sudden brake! Ha! The pilot quickly explained that there was a break malfunction. (True or not who knows la~) I just need to be thankful that I landed in Changi in one piece. Lolz~
This dinner was nothing new to E.W. I thought she probably missed the food. Haha! E.W's curry vegetarian meal.
Took a pic of Aunt Jo's dinner, chicken with baked potatoes. The potato tasted great!
I am always the odd one out when I chose my meal. My braised beef with rice. It's nice okay~
There was a damn funny incident during our flight. SC was mistaken as a kid as an air stewardess asked if she wanted her kids meal to be served. Lolz~ Sadly, I only knew what happened after I heard laughter coming out from the girls.
8.50p.m - Home Sweet Home!
