Wow.
What a trip! And a great travelogue, too. Thanks for doing it. It sounds like a week of hard labor and misery, but interesting nonetheless. Glad you made it back to this luxurious land of flush toilets, running water, and plentiful electricity. We're very lucky.

reading about DR
have you read any of Julia Alvarez's books? e.g. A Wedding in Haiti

Safe travels
Thanks for the virtual tour. I've really enjoyed the pictures and the ongoing commentary. That last dinner sounded splendid. Have a nice, easy trip home!

What a day!
I am finally catching up on your blog. What a wonderful experience so far! Thanks for sharing. The pictures are such a nice addition.

Love hearing about your travels - can't wait to be back there in 2 weeks. Enjoy that fish massage and have a beer for me!

Interesting to know.....
....the general 'feeling' of the students having gone through the Toul Sleng (S-21). Sitting here reading your description....thinking of the suffering that is beyond my comprehension....tears fill my eyes. It is simply so challenging to imagine how a human being comes to believe they have the right to inflict such horrors on other living things. I appreciate your reminder that.....there is so much more in this world, than my warm little family room, fire flickering as I read and type. What a dichotomy of behavior.

Looks like your over feeling ill, and working on a second round!

Thanks for blogging your trip
I really am enjoying the vicarious trip. Lovely photographs and descriptions. I hope you're going to be able to get a bit more sleep, though!

I love your photo of the Russian Market.

I like the group photo!
