CambodiAAA!


Lately I've become fixated on the idea of going to Cambodia. These photos by John McDermott, taken in Angkor right after a solar eclipse, give the old Buddhist temples such an incredible other worldly appearance. I am just dying to go and see it for myself! AND, in addition to having incredible history, Cambodia also has amazing white sand beaches (who knew!), which are just beginning to be rebuilt after the destruction inflicted by the Khmer Rouge.

Take a peak this web page for Veranda National Resort in the Kep National Park. The resort has lovely little bungalows with mountain and ocean views. However, the best part is that the prices start at only $25/night. http://www.veranda-resort.com/index.html.
So if I've peaked your interest and you are looking for a little more detail about what to do and see in Southern Cambodia check out this article from the NY times.
