Monks, Monkeys, and Spiders. Oh, My!

On our last afternoon in Phnom Penh, we visited the royal palace.




There were monks.

And monkeys.

And topiary.

Objects of worship.

Including this shrine to, uh, Emmett Kelly, I guess.


And amazing murals depicting scenes from the Ramayana.

A lovely end to our week in Cambodia.

We had one last dinner with Justin and Jyoti before they left for the beach at Sihanoukville and we headed for Saigon.

And what would a celebratory dinner be without a plate of crispy tarantulas to start?
