Our final day at work was punctuated by our 'all volunteer/all NGO' lunch. We thought we might get away with one person speaking on behalf of the group of volunteers and one on behalf of the organizations. No such luck!! One speech lead to another until just about everyone had been given the floor at some time.
To soften our sadness about leaving, the next day, our very last in Cambodia, we decided to go to Cambodian Cooking School. We learned the secrets of making our favourite dish, Fish Amok, amongst others. In the afternoon, we treated ourselves to hot stone massages - 2 massage therapists for 90 minutes each for $35. Ah... we miss the Cambodian prices since we got home to Canada. (Sorry, no pictures of the massages!!)
Vietnam. We spent nearly two weeks easing the transition to home by touring in Vietnam. Our trip started in the south in Saigon (Ho Chi Min City) and ended in Hanoi and Halong Bay. Click here for a few highlight photos from that trip.
Now that we're full on in the swing of life in Canada, our adventures in Cambodia seem a bit like a fond dream. We have particularly been missing the lovely warm weather and Spring seems to be taking forever to show up.
We would both like to thank all of our friends and families who have faithfully followed, or dabbled in our blog. We've had a lot of fun doing it and hope you've enjoyed it. It was a wonderful adventure, we miss Cambodia, but we're also happy to be home.
