Cambodia 2012

[His Lordship]

I tried to restrict it to my absolute favourite photos, but there were so many!
I've limited it to my top 10.

[spoiler]
Feeding a 4-month-old tiger cub at the tiger temple. There are only four cubs, and there were only eight of us there to play with them and tend to them, so we had lots of quality time with them.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Meditating under a beam of sunlight in the Tomb Raider Temple, known officially as Ta Prohm.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Playing with the elephants by the Burmese border. They were spraying us and an epic water fight ensued. No points for guessing which side won between the humans and the elephants. We also got to play rodeo, where we'd sit on top of the elephants and hold onto their ears while they shook their heads and tried to toss us into the water. I managed to hang on one time out of three :P[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Eating a deep fried spider in Skuon, also known as Spiderville. They taste like chicken... seriously.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Holding the live version of what I had just eaten. They may have been brothers. These things are so soft and furry. They are slow and don't sprint up your arms. They are gentle and loveable ♥[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Me standing on some human bones that had emerged after rain had washed away some of the path. At many points I was unknowingly standing on victims' clothes, bones and teeth. This was intense.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Children from a small Cambodian community were dancing for us before dinner. This is a traditional coconut dance.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Finding a landmine site in the middle of the Cambodian countryside.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]
I was moved by the grace of this woman walking in this photo, amidst the poverty around her. There's a certain dignity in her expression that captivates me. The village around the lake was truly confronting. Clothing for the children was... optional. No child porn jokes please![/spoiler]

[spoiler]
Spot the plank.[/spoiler]

Slight possibility you met my mother there ##
So, how do you like Asian weather? :D

[His Lordship]

I'm used to it by now. I've been to Asia at least 15 times in living memory.
I truly hate the humidity.

Tiger is definitely the best  <3

[His Lordship]

I can officially say I've been bitten by a tiger.
I used to be an adventurer like you... then I took a tiger in the knee.

[Colinwarrior]

Very cool photos! Looks like you had a great time! I especially like the elephant one because elephants are my favorite animal and I would love to play with them like that...
