A Day in Phnom Penh

Today was an unforgettable day. We visited the horrifying sites of the killing fields, S-21 Prison, and then onto more pleasant sites of the National Museum, Wat Phnom, the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda. I'll have to blog about these in more detail later as there's so many stories to share.

My whole reason for visiting Cambodia was to see the country my parents left behind 30 years ago. I wanted to learn about the past and at the same time help the future of the country any way I can. I might not be able to do much but every bit helps. If everyone here will just do their little bits, I think Cambodia will have a brighter future. Hearing family stories about the struggle and hardships makes me appreciate life like no other. All you can ever ask for in life is life itself and for that I am truly grateful.

To be able to share this story with everyone is a blessing in itself. I have lots of stories to tell so will most likely be blogging here and there about them upon my return to Scotland, so please stay tune....

Until then...more pics:)
