Bye Bye Nepal and hello to the sunny Cambodian days!

WHAT’S UP, EVERYONE! I am back with another blog post for you today about our final day in Nepal, the airport horror, and our day and a quarter in Cambodia for the first time! It has been a very exciting two days and now, get ready for the story that was super awesome and created an arc in traveling. Our traveling jam started by me delicately waking up in the morning and having a nice pancake at the Dalaila hotel. It was very nice, to be honest, and would have been perfect if we weren’t in a rush because we were in a rush to go to the airport. Yeah, we were rushing and thus the whole thing felt really stressful. So then we packed up our remaining stuff and then we got our certificates of achievement from Ganesh!! Technically, they were the papers that said we completed the EBC and that was a good thing because they gave us eternal bragging rights and were nice trophies to my collection. Then, we left the Dalaila and drove to the airport, where we said goodbye to Ganesh and after a major hustle at security involving a compass, we got on the airplane and left for Thailand. It was fast, but looking out the window and seeing Nepal so far down below us was a really great feeling for me. We arrived at Bangkok airport and the most climatic part of our day began with a bang. We arrived and immediately after, we were faced with loads of immigration and security that we had to go through just because we were in Thailand! It was really unfair and then we had to run to the passport post and then run all the way to the gate with 10 minutes left before we were late and went through MORE security. It was the hardest part of the day and when it was over, I was going like *YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!*. We landed in Cambodia after that whole fiasco and met up with our very good friend Meril, who we saw in Israel right before Nepal. We had dinner, a nice shower, and then we finally had a good night’s sleep far away from dust and bad reception. We woke up the next day with a start and after a nice breakfast, started a tour of five of Cambodia’s temples! The first one was actually the biggest temple in the world and considered one of the seven wonders of the world! It was very cool how they managed to construct such elaborate designs and made everything flow together. It was way ahead of its time and I admire that very much. After that, we went to three temples located right next to each other within the woods and we climbed them and saw many new things. It was very interesting and afterward, we had lunch and I bought a flute!!!!!!!!! We went to the last temple of the day where there was a loud, screeching sound the whole time that was very interesting and we learned that that temple was raided multiple times by people. We then left the temple and when we got to the hotel, we went to the pool and had a good time there! Ella and Meril got massages after and then after a nice dinner, we went to sleep happy.
