Today was packed and awesome. We woke early, went to the buses and drove two hours to this secluded village up in the nearby mountains where they had some ancient ruins and a massive waterfall. We swam up to the waterfall and climbed on slippery and sharp rocks up behind the waterfall. Amazing experience for you adventurers.
Afterwards we grabbed lunch and drove back to meet with the local LDS branch. The first LDS branch opened about 4 years ago here in Cambodia and they have been growing steadily. The members had us do sort of a talent show and then they did the same for us - introducing some unique culture issues of theirs.
The night finished off in the "night market" where I picked up a painting of Angkor Wat, grabbed some curry and got a $1, fifteen minute back and neck massage.
The people: So the people of Cambodia are extremely humble and kind. Everyone seems to be an entrepreneur to one degree or another.
Ok, I have fallen asleep about 10 times trying to type this. It's 1am and we have to be up for a flight to Thailand in 6 hours. I'll have to catch up more/better later and get some pics on here.
Until then....Goodnight!
