I think it's liquor in there, but I didn't want to get too much closer to see.

So interesting!
I can't say that Cambodia looks appealing, in a normal tourist sense. But I'm sure you've learned a lot and I'm eager to hear your reactions to all these experiences!

Part II
...betel-chewing (Areca nut, sprinkled with slaked lime and wrapped in a Piper betel leaf which produces a very bitter and sharp tasting chewable ... I looked a little further and found this and lots more but enough for now. It is carcinogenic as well as disfiguring... Car-oil

It's betel juice and from a plant not the little crawly things. It does have a bit of a high. Actually, the betel nut is the nut from the Areca palm and is mixed with something and lime powder. One chews the fibrous nut into a wad and then adds in the lime powder and it all turns red. The whole thing is finally spat out and not swallowed. (You're welcome! I'l stop the lesson now...). Stay well... Love, Carole

Hahaha, Many older women have back teeth because they have dyed theirs. This habbits were in fact very popular in the past, but nowadays only some in the countryside do. They used dried tabaco leaves and betel to stain the teeth. Great blog indeed. Enjoy traveling.

Marlese, I am enjoying following your travels. I would dearly love to get to Angor Wat but don't expect that I will at this point. I am jealous of the fabulous picture taking opportunities available to you. Hope you continue to enjoy your visit and trip to Taiwan. Scotty

Aren't you glad you lost so much weight so that the photo op Mel availed himself of is blog-able? How are the other people? How many in your group? (Or do you not want these kinds of descriptions going out to a wider audience? How about the food, etc., etc.? I love keeping in touch this way! Car

I would never have gone into that entrance or into the tunnel. Has Mel took any risks yet? How is the food there? You are both very adventurous. (To me, since I am the opposite.)
