Cambodia is by far the hottest place we have trodden so far. At 9:30am today I could feel the sun burning my flesh, as if I were holding it too close to hot coals. We have therefore escaped to a nearby hotel's poolside to hide beneath giant coconut and banana trees and submerge ourselves as and when required. Beaming through a faint haze of incense smoke hanging in the still air, the sun is electrifying the water, throwing disco ball sparkles into the shadows in which we lurk and revealing the outlines of the other slovenly souls around us.
