[whatswithjuly]

may P88 fare ang cebu pac. may interested ba.. i want to go pero walang kasama..

[vuzhia]

pa suggest naman po ng hotel sa Siem Reap na may breakfast buffet...kahit 3star hotel, kase kasama namin this time yung 2 brother ko na medyo malakas kumain, feeling ko hindi nila ma enjoy yung set breakfast...lalo pa at paguran sa maghapong tour

[vuzhia]

^thanks sis sa info, plan ko kase Land Arrangement na kukunin ko, kase whole family kami eh yung Dad ko medyo nirarayuma na, naisip ko pipili ako ng hotel na may buffet brekfast kaya nagtatanong tanong na ako, offer kase nila 3 star and 4 star hotel, pero hindi binanggit sa package ang name ng mga hotel, request ko na lang na mag send sila sa akin ng mga pagpipilian na hotel

sis american breakfast ba sila na maraming choices? iba kase talaga appetite ng 2 kong brother, isang 6 footer at 5'10" yun, so imagine talaga yung dapat kain nila pag may whole day activity...hihi! 

[Crissy]

^LoL sis vuzhiam not much yung choices like sa mga 4 or 5 stars hotel but buffet naman sya na the usual na mga choices: coffee, milk, juice & tea , rice, noodles, cereals, sausages, bread, eggs,pancake, bacon, fish and fresh fruits. 

But pansin ko lang parang iba yung lasa nang food nila. I find it bland, kahit when I dine out sa buffet resto nila.   

[vuzhia]

^hihi baka kase manibago yung dalawa kong kapatid, sa BKK yung hotel namin dami talaga choices breakfast para ngang may kasama ng lunch & dinner, baka kase ako masisi kase ako nag aarange ng tour namin, sabihin naman nila ginutom ko sila, buti nga yung kasamang lunch & dinner may mga buffet rin

kung mag iikot sa Angkor W@t, ano mas okay na gamiting shoes, ballet flats or Grendha sandals? thanks! 

[yby2476]

rubber shoes sis or crocs...

[vuzhia]

^thanks sis, okay lang ba kung chuck taylor light?

[gorgeousmama]

^^ sis di ba pede yung flats, im planning to use pab der flats ko, ito kasi yung ginamit ko sa SG  last yearng ng ikot kami sa sentosa and USS

so safe rubber shoes?

[foruiz]

^i used my pab der flats too. I also used my DMs on the  next day.

[gorgeousmama]

^thanks sis 

okey kayo short? kaya lang baka ma sunburn legs ko, hehe

[yby2476]

ako kasi mas comfortable ako sa crocs pag lakad...pero kung iikot ka around the temples, better kung yung mga rubber ang gamitin, do not used flats or kahit sandals, sakit sa paa yan...tapos kung balak mo pang umakyat sa mga temples, mag-paa ka...kami kasi parang nag-paa yata kami, lalo na yung mga temples na mahirap akyatin,meron kasing mga temples dun na hahawak ka dun sa mga stones at paupo kang aakyat at bababa...

wearing short? it depends kasi kung san temple ka...may mga iba na di pinapayagan ang mag-short...pero sa angkor [textspeak!], ok lang naman...although, mas ok na  naka-pants ka or loose pants kasi alam mo na, maraming lamok, di mo alam kung anong kakagat sa iyo...unless you put a lot of off lotion...

[gorgeousmama]

^ thanks sis for the suggesttion

magdala na lang siguro ako ng rubber shoes or yung aqua shoes,, di kasi ako sanay mg rubber shoes parang init na ninit ako,,,, baka nga loose pants na lang

sa BKK na lang makpag flats and sandals
 

[Miss Charcoal]

rubber shoes maganda okay lang mag shorts pero wag naman yung sobrang iksi. nasunog yung arms ko sa init ng araw.

kakaiba yung hagdan sa Angkor W.a.t. mismo, parang > 45-degree angle @_@

[gorgeousmama]

^nakupo sis, you mean para kang nag beach, nag sunblock ka ba?\\

pano pa kaya next yearm

just finished my trip to siem reap! my bf and i stayed at prince d' angkor hotel which is roughly around 200m from the night market. our hotel is nice, with airport transfer and breakfast buffet. the buffet is good too, with lots of choices from western to asian foods. i've got a couple of issues though, the pillow isn't that soft, and it's thicker than the usual. i mostly don't used it as im scared of having a stiffed neck which might ruin our trip. (im thinking whether that is the 'normal' pillow in siem reap) another thing is that our room is faced infront of the pool (they're claiming that their pool is the largest salt water pool in the city, btw) with lots of plants surrounding it -- which attracts mosquitoes. im suggesting anyone to request for rooms on a higher floor if you'll be staying here.

all establishments even the tuktuk ride accepts USD, so no need to change money if you're bringing USD. or better yet, have your PHP change to USD before going there. we rented a car for 2 days, which costs us USD30 per day. this could be a fair price if you're 4 pax traveling. we paid for three days entrance fee at the angkor w a t ticketing office which costs USD40 per person even if we'll just have the tour for 2 days. the only choice you have is 1 day (USD30) or 3 days entrance (USD40).

tuktuk rides around the city is just USD2 which is already good for 4 persons. i would suggest that as much as it is tempting to buy souvenirs around angkor w a t area, stop yourself. it'll be better and could be cheaper if you buy it in the night market. scarfs are mostly just USD3, some would give a free scarf if you buy 3.

for restaurants, i would recommend the red piano and blue pumpkin. blue pumpkin has a very nice and relaxing place on the upper level. when you have spare time on the afternoon, it is best to lounge there, enjoy their wifi while having some pastries.

^talaga, $30 na pala yung 1 day pass?

[yby2476]

^sis, tumaas na no? kasi parang naalala ko nung pumunta kami yung one day pass parang $10 lang yata...nung 2010 pa yun...

[Miss Charcoal]

^kami $20 last year

@georgeousmama: SPF10 lang nagamit ko nun. Hehe.
