My 13 year old son is permanently attached to his GameBoy and has no interest in much else at the moment that isn%26#39;t electronic. So the thought of being dragged around various temples is horrifying him! I would love advise on what else is on offer in SR that a young teenager might enjoy. No shopping please (unless for electronic games!)as that appears to be a worse fate even than Angkor Wat!
What else is there to do in SR other than going to visit the temples(that%26#39;s my dream about to come true)? Are most things shut during the day as everyone knows that the tourists are out and about and only surface in the town at night? Are there any hotels particularly suitable for teenagers?
Grateful for any advise. Thank you.
A VERY silly question about teenagers!
Have a look at the Quad Adventure Cambodia ATV Tours. It may be of interest.

He just might surprise you and turn into a real boy if you organise a visit to a school or orphanage.
We did this about 4 years ago on a trip to Vietnam. OK we took two girls but they both nominated the orphanage visit as the highlight of the trip. We spent about half a day there, the kids played soccer, chess, frisbee and drew on the concrete with jumbo sticks of chalk. the kids at the orphanage didn%26#39;t speak english, we didn%26#39;t know any vietnamese but communication was not a problem.
I recognise your name from a post about football boots so maybe that is the communication medium which will work best. Perhaps you could even take a couple of footballs with you -or even a league/union or aussie rules ball - you never know!
Travel has broadened our kids minds so much more than anything they can get on TV or at school.
good luck - (I%26#39;d be really tempted to forget the charger for the DS! - but then I%26#39;m a mean mummy sometimes!)

sorry Poli - it wasn%26#39;t you with the footy boots, it was the backpackers on the post inbetween.
