Hello all
We are now safely in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. We arrived yesterday (Sunday the 9th) from Battambang, a town in the NW of Cambodia, not far from the border with Thailand.
The border crossing from Thailand was an interesting experience. Pretty smooth except for the part where we had to barter with the Cambodian immigration official over the price of our visas! Apparently the land border crossings are a little more lax than at the airport in Phnom Penh! That done we then spent about 15 minutes negotiating with someone to take us to Battambang in a taxi. We were about to pack it all in and just jump on the back of a pick up when another couple came along and agreed to share the taxi with us. Was just as well as the road was horrific. Mud and rain - not such a flash hot combination...
More will come later about what work we will be doing here as we are still meeting with people to figure out the schedule... stay tuned....
For now, though, thanks for all the emails, notes etc. Take care
