^ Humor advisory noted, seatbelt buckled, popcorn ready.

PS: I see your comedic timing is like your seafood tastes: light & delicate
PPS: I think you have a future as a Victorian novelist.

Since you put a disclaimer, you should take the political incorrect level up a notch

Bit of a hassle carrying your tom ford suit all the way across developing countries no?

Looking forward to reading about burma and taiwan!

So typical that you got hassled in accessing Singapore Room.

Haha thanks, I'll take all the compliments I can get.

I thought about that too, but US tailors aren't as good (nearly messed up my last two suits) as Asian tailors, also their turn-around time is two weeks vs. two days in Asia. So I thought I'd drag it over there so I don't have to fly all the way to NY or Chicago just to get disappointed.

I always think the same thing when I see those watch ads!

I like your bluntness, without all the hyperbole and excessive adjectives we usually see in these reports.

Angkor Wat is amazing.

I did 7 days in SR - some were pool days, I did one long day with a tour guide - where we did the short circuit (nothing short about it),

I also did dawn at Angkor Wat, and some afternoons went out and did some of the other temple sites just out of the city,

It is totally amazing and has to be seen to get a true feel for the enormity of the temples.

Great start to your trip report. I spent a week in Siem Reap in early March and spent 2 days touring the temples, it's very easy to get "templed" out pretty quick. It's a very picturesque place, your photos are amazing.

Looking forward to the rest of your TR.

How did you manage to stay engaged for a whole week? I think I would have been bored after two nights max in Siem Reap. There are only so many sites to see. I can't imagine spending seven days even in my favorite cities.

Great photos. Can you tell me what you packed in your carry on? I would like to travel with just a carry on and a knapsack, but have found myself way over packing.

Thanks
