P-NOM PEN and FULL POWER
Well Hello...Another bender in the big city.
GAAAWWWD. Who brought Beer Lao into this country
We got some shopping in yesterday, At the central Market, Which is this Older than Canada looking dome contraption. There we bought Hammocks, and T-shirts, and headphones, and almost got suckered into a Gameboy Advance...Alas the bartering got the better of us.
There is no accounting for the consumate Bartering our daily lives consist of , We've just come from our guest house (OKAY)that enlists the services of about twenty tuk-tuk drivers to do small tasks like serve coffee, and turn on the dvd player. In return they get to hound the guests at all hours with the repetitive four word slander "Where you go?" At times this works in our favour, for instance by haggeling with three people at once yesterday, I believe we got the best price in all three cases as our time was short for each person. So we succesfully bought a hammock, shot down a 5yr. old bookseller, and got a ride to our guesthouse all at the best rate.

Today we go check out some genocide at the killing fields and S21. We'll just see if shooting AK-47's (a regular tour stop) is in the cards after a long day of learning Cambodia's bloody history. Somehow with a head full of hangover, The prattle of gunfire may get to this old boy woozy. Oh yeah and WE'RE GOING TO A MUSEUM ABOUT THE KILLING OF HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE maybe not.

Pictures by the bucketload are on the way.

Did you guys throw rocks at the little gnomey-type figures all over S-21?

I bet that school has chains all over - hanging from the ceiling like that mall playland in Rexdale that has those soft boxing bumper things suspended from the ceilings all over.

How are the maritime engines over there? Do they have better raft-building skills than our crab fishermen (the Newfies in particular)?
