Cambodia Royal Palace

Only picture which showed Sofia, our guide in Phnom Penh
3rd December 2007 : Our first day in Phnom Penh, after making a 6-hour journey by bus from Siem Reap, was to visit the Royal Palace.
Sofia, our young guide, is one who has many opinions about the running of things in her country and is idealistic in her thoughts most of the time.
The Royal Palace is fit for the king but there are many areas which are not accessible. During our visit, we came across a group of Cambodian students on their learning journey. First impression was that they are not unlike our students, with the typical 'ah beng' types who tried to look cool and the studious type who copied every word. One point was that when their teacher approached them, they quickly behaved properly.
