Hanging with my Mummy :) and Last month in Cambodia :( ... 27.7.11

So, only 3 days to go until I leave Cambodia :( What an adventure it has been! And to top off my adventure my mum is here to visit :D She arrived last Monday and will travel India for a couple weeks with me until I begin my next leg of volunteering in Bobbili, India.

Picking mum up from the airport ;P
Mum's first go at filling up the water buckets
Relaxing in the hammock
Some of my Kindy kids came to visit :D
Yam chips! Very yummy!
Mum hard at work making a garden bed

On Friday I took Mum to the floating village ...

Floating School
Floating Shop
This boy with his family came up to us in their little row boat asking if we wanted to have pictures with their pet snake!
They let me drive the boat! Probably not their wisest decision!
Floating crocodile farm!
Part of the floating village
A lotus farm we stopped at on the way home
Beautiful Lotus flower

On Sunday I took Mum to Angkor Wat ...









Mum's been obsessed with cows this whole trip ... every cow she sees, she has to take a photo!






Elephant ride up Phnom Bakheng to see the sunset (there was nothing to see though cos it was pouring rain)

A child trying to convince mum to buy his flutes.




So ... I told her to pretend to kiss it ... what does she do? Actually kisses it! ... That's my mum! ;P
