Callie went to Cambodia

 Dan took Callie to Cambodia and Vietnam.They left the Friday that school got out for Christmas break, and returned the following Friday. So, they were gone Dec 14-21.  They liked Cambodia better than Vietnam, but that may have been a difference in tours, time spent there and Callie was  kind of done after 4 days. She decided she likes shorter trips better.

They did have a good time, and the trip was a success.  They took lots of photos and I'm putting too many of them here. Callie liked the animals best, and they had the good fortune of being in the same city as Callie's most amazing 6th grade teacher, so they got to go out to dinner with her.

I made her take a goodbye selfie so I'd have one last picture of her in case she didn't come back. 


Dan was astounded that they rode motorcycles like this with crazy traffic. 

 Posing in front of the important building.

Callie much preferred photos with cats! 

Riding in a tuk tuk. 

Her dad made her pose here, and I'm glad! 

An encounter with monks-in-training. 

Did I mention that Callie loved the animals!?!  She said this puppy was so soft. 

Eating out and trying new things.  But not too many new things! 

 They went for a horseback ride.

 Callie was delighted.  She loved it a lot more than walking! 

The guide made Dan take a "money shot" of Callie at the end without her helmet. 

This guy was offering elephant rides. But they did not take one. 

She got bored of all the sightseeing and picture taking. 

But they saw some cool stuff. 

And she was a good sport about it.  Then she would call me and complain about all the walking. 

Always with the animals! 

 Chillin' with some monkeys.

It is dark, but there is a monkey in there!  He's drinking from the water bottle Callie is offering it. 

 Angkor Wat.  Callie was there.

And saw cool stuff.  That Dan doesn't want to tell me about. Which probably means he can't remember what this is.

They went to an acrobat show and Dan was really impressed.   

Dinner at a fancy four course place. They were a bit underdressed.

Callie liked this lady and her dog. 

Checking out the cool waterfall. 

Resting her tired legs. 

 Another Temple.

Hoa-Lo, one of the places POWs were kept during the Vietnam War.  
(It was a prison for a hundred years before the American pilots went there and dubbed it the Hanoi Hilton.) 

Tight quarters in the hotel!
