Phnom Penh Again

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RUBY GRACE!!

This morning we wanted to go to Bokor National Park, but the only way we could find to get there was in the back of a truck. We've seen these pick-ups before, and they're loaded down with so many passengers that there is standing room only. Besides, Kel's foot was in no condition to go hiking, so we shook the sand out of our clothes, packed up and headed to the Starfish Bakery for breakfast. It is a delicious cafe, and 100% of proceeds go to assist disadvantaged Cambodians. We had a great breakfast of freshly baked scones and relaxed for a while in the garden. We then got the bus back to Phnom Penh and had dinner at our new hangout, Frizz. We were happy that they recognized us, and that they had noticed we were gone for a few nights. We'll have an early night as it is a long bus ride to Battambang tomorrow.

Hey guys, still very very jealous of you! Sounds like you're having a fabulous time.
Currently I'm sporting a lovely yellow bruise on my cheek due to a drunken disagreement with gravity and a wall. Coupled with scrapes and bruises all on my right-hand side I look like a domestic abuse victim! So am getting a few strange looks when going out!
Can't wait till you upload some more pics, the places your're seeing sound amazing, eye-opening and inspiring. Take care, E.

How Bad is Kel's foot?
