Wow, today was packed with wild sights and laughs as we introduced the newcomers to Cambodia's random craziness. This morning the gals and most of the kids went to a little market near our apartment and shopped for a few household items. I ate a coconut waffle that was one of the best things I have ever tasted here, of course it was made on an iron that was sitting on top of a bucket with a fire in it, but... if you could get past where it came from it really was good (or legit, as I now know a new cool word.)! Kenden was all about it, he ate most of it while I packed him in his backpack (where is James when I need him?).
The guys went to the Garden Center for breakfast, a fav from the last trip. They made shopping lists for their projects and tried to get a plan together for the coming week. Honestly, I think we had more fun than they did, I am not a huge fan of the Garden Center for sure.
Next we went to Wat Phnom. Remarkably different from the last time we were there, better this time with more to look at and more people to watch. The latter is always a plus.
Lunch on the riverfront then off to Oresay market, definitely one of the more colorful ones in town. Maybe a little to much for some of our group but I must say that I totally love the markets. It is fascinating how these people live so differently than we do. You cant begin to understand them, or converse with them unless you can relate to their lives. Seeing how people work and eat says alot, again, fascinating.
We just finished dinner here at the apartment. It is fun to all eat together and rehash the days events. So far things are good and going as planned, well that is if we had a plan.
~Yes, those are crickets!
Hey guys. Great pictures. Sounds like a couple of fun days. Everybody looks good. Did Shelby eat the crickets? What a woman! And is that corn icecream? Yikes! Bye for now
