Well, Happy Thanksgiving everyone. We may have found a way out. Instead of turkey and stuffing, I may be eating amok and samlor in Siem Reap. We are potentially going to have to travel overland to Cambodia, and then fly out of there. Bonus! We thought we were done with long bus trips, but we'll be travelling all day tomorrow. Bonus! We have to deal with the nasty Cambodian border crossing, where everybody wants a bribe. Bonus! We are only waitlisted for a flights once we get to Seoul, so we may have to spend a night.
Thanks, PAD.

What an adventure. Hey why *not* make a bunch of border guards very thankful this turkey day (something tells me you aren't the only ones with this idea). Good luck!
good luck! sounds like an adventure indeed. :)
I hope you guys have a safe trip home and you aren't deterred too much longer!! Enjoy making the most of it!!
Oh, my poor friend, I'm so sorry. Happy you've been able to navigate your way home though:)
Hi Xander!

The post is set to publish first thing on Saturday morning (midnight Barcelona time).

Good luck! My parents were lucky enough to be one of the last flights out of the country (pure luck) after a trip to Thailand this month. So, I wanted to check in to see how you are. Good luck and I'm still trying to get the New Mexico book out...haven't forgotten about you!

Good luck with that journey...hope it has improved since I did it on the back of a pick-up truck in 2000...I think it counts as the most overland road journey ever...
I amgreen what a great place to be.
