Along the way we do some shopping for snacks at a local market. What I learned today: French fried crickets, si, fried duck tongue, no. Actually the crickets taste like greasy potato chips and you can buy them either with eggs or without. So far I haven't convinced Mary or Ike to try them.
Since traffic lights are just beginning to make an appearance in Cambodia, traffic can be one great big mess of cars, motor cycles, tuk tuks, bicycles and other inventions such as a contraption resembling a set of bleachers attached to a motorcycle that can transport up to 30 people.
We arrived at Angkor Thomanon before sunset for a quick look and then I went to the upper terraces of one of the temples to watch the sunset. It was some climb and even harder coming down. Chuck went back to the hotel, choosing not to do the climb.
We finally have wifi so I am catching up with these posts for the past three days. I am listening to a New Year's Eve party right below our hotel room balcony--complete with a loud band and fireworks. I figure I will be up until one a.m. when the band quits.
