So we made it to Angkor Wat. Start of travelling home is tomorrow. Amazing countries and adventures. Thanks to all who have sponsored. Still time to sponsor if you haven't as more research needs to be done for Parkinson's disease.https://dahcm2awfeb25.enthuse.com/pf/sylvia-davies

Horrible weather here in South Wales. Made it back from Cardiff earlier, but roads were deadly. A cat photo of our two youngest to bring a smile x
