Cambodia, check....Thailand Bound

So we've been in Cambodia a week now & we are Thailand bound today. We're about to get on a 10 hour bus ride to Bangkok. I'm gonna miss Cambodia! The food, the tragic history, the friendly smiling people, how cheap everything is, the rawness of the country, & more. I didn't really know what to expect when coming here but I assure you that whatever expectations I had, Cambodia far exceeded them. Eventhough Cambodia is a very poor country, they have come such a LONG way in just a short time. Only 3 decades ago, Cambodia was going through a genocide. We will never be able to comprehend the pain & suffering these people have gone through.
Ankgor Wat blew my mind. We went to see the sun set there & then headed out super early the next morning to catch the sunrise. Breathtaking! We spent the whole day there, going by tuk-tuk to each site. Incredible! I can definitely see why it's one of the Seven Wonders of the World!
Well, the bus will be here any minute. Bangkok...here we come! Goodbye Cambodia, you will be missed, but never forgotten.
