Day 4 – Farewell Siem Reap
… continue from Day 3 – Loots of Siem Reap and Apsaras Dance Show
We have 2 hours to kill before catching our flight at 11am. Since my sister wanted to get more bracelet as souvenir for her colleagues we have to head back to Old Market again.
We spotted this cart and know for sure that this is our breakfast!
The one we had on Day One is with roast pork filling. This time, they have ham. They was so good I almost tapau one home for hubby to try. You can rest assured with me when I say it is good, it could meant HEAVENLY DELICIOUS. When I say the stall is clean, it could also meant SQUEAKY TOP NOTCH HYGIENE.
Tell me, comparing to the above photo and the one below, who will you buy the french loaf from?
Just imagine, if one of the loaf drop to the floor, will she throw them away or pick them up, give it a blow, clean them on her sleeve and put it back on the tray? Thanks but no thank you!
In the Old Market at the wet section, there is a stall selling flowers.
This is the local lotus which has been weaved. Or rather I would say, FOLDED. The actual lotus has very large petals.
We headed back to the hotel and have one last drink in the hotel’s cafe to quench our thirst. Or rather I would say, I will miss you thisssssssssssssssssssssss much *sob sob*
aitelyu, the Coconut shake is so good! Basically, they blend the young coconut flesh and juice together into smoothies. Another drinks that you must try in Siem Reap. Sugar cane! They are not some plain sugar cane that we drink in KL. Their sugar cane is mixed with local orange juice (green skin). We had this 2 drinks almost everyday especially sugar cane cos it is widely sold everywhere.
Those are my bitter and sweet memories in Siem Reap. Rewriting it down on my blog does bring back lots of fond memories. I’ve penned it down in details to benefit any of you that are going there for holiday or future reference. TOO MUCH DETAILS sometimes it does scare my readers away *rolling eye*
We paid US$3 for a ride in Tuk-tuk to the airport and US$25 for taxes (kanasai so $$$)!
While waiting to board the flight, I donated my last piece of US$10 to their tourist fund. *sarcasm* *slap self*
I think I am attracted to the pouch rather than the massage oil. rofl… Anyway, I love eucalyptus. They are very soothing especially if you have a block nose or migraine. Have I use them? Not yet. Busy and lazy. I want to be massaged and not a massager *rolling eye*.

The coconut smoothy looks so yum! *slurps*
The tax is unreal. Better not let my representatives hear of this rate.

The smoothies looked good. Anyway, top notch hygiene or not; you can’t really expect everywhere to be the same. Can’t make them sterilize everything also. It’s no an operating theater. Just got to make do with what they have and be careful of the consumption of food.
