Well. What is that saying about the best laid plans of mice & men?

Yep, the daily blog has really gone awry alright, what with not finding fast enough service in
Siem Reap and my experimenting with heat exhaustion (I'm OK now, but it wasn't fun....)

We are back in Phnom Penh (It's now the 18th of October) and will try to catch up quickly tonight on the postings, but the descriptions are going to be briefer than I had wanted.

Begging children

Many of the beggars that we have encountered ethier are holding children or teach their children to do the begging. I photographed this one trying to get money from Kendal without her seeing me do it.
