Jewels in the Jungle---in Siem Reap in those days (1)

Remember is 14 April departure, because the night of the plane so I took the big box went to the company, was not much vacation available .that flowers, this is not the next there comrades asked me the same tour beautiful mysterious Tibetan or romantic country of France.

Walking day Shanghai temperature suddenly comes a free fall, out of time to see a lot of people give away winter again put into the body. For the sake of Battlefront, morning I bite that go out to lunch out to fright persons freeze-dried, and not dare to stay outside, go to parkson following supermarket purchases something quickly, just drill back to the warmth of the Office. Flights to Cambodia should you have any choice is always arrive in the evening departure in the morning, and as we choose in the weekend, the airlines also mercilessly will price increases had them% black one word. Fortunately through acquaintances, get a good discount. Due to flight delays and delay, when we arrived in Phnom Penh is a little more a.m. local time. Out, engine room, a familiar with tropical atmosphere immediately upheavals in Shanghai is also too thin coat, but get there immediately became cumbersome.

When the Customs is smooth, and failed to meet the legendary sacked event.

Was to have the drive, if you really want to meet, to bow to the forces of evil, dingy, is hiding. But back when friends met, remember that customs officials speak with us and said: "get money", or the standard of Putonghua. But if you play dumb and dumbfounded, they would not dare you, finally, of course, there is no suspense and smoothly. Because it was late at the airport passenger driver is just a few isolated cases of, all drivers should have all left the same astronomical. Indecision, arrived at the Guest House in advance reservation has two points of time. Most depressing is that time has been advised as to too late, the hotel has room to the other guests (my God, before fear was so unexpected that I also am phone flight times and let them be sure to leave room for us). Dragging luggage, people are tired and didn't have a bad temper, too lazy to speak more with them. The boss says there are beds ask if we have no interest in (of course, there is no door), the better the next day to get up early (in fact, is the second day) or sleep long, so this night will be on it.

Only nodded didn't duohuier Kung Fu, he quickly picked up by six, and be prepared to start.

In the Guest House up to Siem Reap's tickets, the driver took us to the boat pier. The boat is in any event before, I also think that this is the voyage will be this hard and long. May not rest well last night, I need sleep on board, fell, the girl is buguanbugu, seat constantly changing variety of sleeping position, but how do you feel uncomfortable. Air conditioning blowing people uncomfortable, Bale bale or go. Out of the cabin, seven in the morning sunshine but also warmly to keep my eyes open eyes. Flying all the way to the exclusion of yacht you carefully watching the scenery on both sides. The shore is covered with a colorful my name is not on the name of tropical plants, in addition to the coconut trees. Fishing village children saw the boat near the excitement with breath after the boat people are enthusiastic response to those events beckon. Those kids ragged, thin and weak, we flashed by speedboat waving cheer, although over a distance, but they burst smile still clearly visible. In fact, the last two years, this sea to Angkor pilgrimage of visitors, the children are faced with every day so tourists, but always maintain a surprising enthusiasm, so keep on calling, so keep on hopping. Their life difficult, but the vigor and enthusiasm to the outside world but make perusal dream. Could you not know that the cruise was just over there, the visitor will not stay there, let alone residential and shopping are all in on them without any help of circumstances occur, but such a place than the Phnom Penh and Siem Reap to poverty.

Because the relationship is the dry season, had no duohuier we start from the larger boats to wrap to a smaller boat.

This really is a boat, just hold all passengers and baggage. Some people also were forced to sit out-of-the-top, equip ship free Cambodia country Sun's free gift. Of course this also no lack of interest was high handsome beauty, is pleased to accept the challenge of free day, brave embarked on the non-Charter boat without blocking. The ship sailed slowly on the Lake, the sporadic phone signal. Lake drifted wide, start a little looking mighty mean, a lot of hours after I had like flots. Suddenly, without any symptoms, we travel by boat on the Lake. On this was California, people did not seem a big response, we all devout's skipper absolutely can get such a small case. Time is passed, the cabin remained peaceful. Chat or talk with people, NAP just looked a bit, then turn right after lie down. Which, continue to turn, I watched the predecessors of Raiders on the next trip. Pound's skipper get more than half an hour, but the motor does not seem to have heard the call of the effort to pay before the river water. Sitting next to an old, previously of Finland is a mechanical engineer, warm to the idea of the boatmen out, finally, it is not. The good news is that we stop places there are mobile phone signals, remind to ship home finally allocated calls, we were told would soon someone come and rescue us. But never thought this was quickly but it is so long that every time a ship time everyone glad that it is our hope that the star, but before we see it clearly, that hope is like a beautiful bubbles — shattered. The boat has air-conditioning, open is also pretty cool, but once you stopped it is stuffy ', many people took out a inferior periodicals\magazine stack or rage of the tropics. But this seems to be in vain, Khan or miso miso and out. More than four hours after it or not, to the emergence of rescue personnel. Fortunately we mindset are good, original stranger chat to talk to have graduallyShuluo. An old lady and a France Germany guy doing a we do not know the crossword. Remember how long it was, in the distance a dull sound of the motor, lazy probe, it seems no longer have a naive illusions, I also do a boat for the night. Just the sound closer, closer, he exclaimed: "the Rescuing Boat, Rescuing Boat!!!" This is true, we managed to have our hope star, the crowd cheered. The original had been tortured in the nearly burning sun ships top visitors, the time taken up again. Approximately two hours, has undergone a change, we finally arrived at Siem Reap boat pier. The original six-hour's walk, but fully spent over an hour of our twelve people were hungry hot infirmity. Ah, Tonle (Tonle Sap River) I will put your career in mind.

Siem Reap's Pier, I see but also is a Terminal, at best a willing holes in the road, the rough slopes, pedestrian was inconvenient for carrying heavy luggage of all visitors is more difficult.

Thought pre-arranged pick our Inn driver early went back, but in the crowd suddenly discovered by our brands, touched, really touched. The driver is a dark local lad, told us that his name was Brad, but we call him Bra. The next day in Siem Reap, we almost all youth with the simplicity of the car. Go to GH's Highway (also known as highway), poor road conditions, along with one of the pits, as if just after intensive bombing. At this point is to understand why will arrange a car to pick us because the cart in this way, but couldn't be convoluted car to be ready to act in such a way. Even so, we had to hold handrail, or at any time have been moved out of the question. If you have a cart open, will make you unhappy campers, because it is the dry season haven't afternoon, dusty road. Hear the war-torn Cambodia as year after year, the annual spending a large part depend on foreign aid, the difficulties of the Government is unable to fund the construction of the highway.

Passing villages, often ruin still supports without grass shed and Jane.

The House is too small, the owner of a House, a while. Locals dress reminds me of Ethiopian refugees, many of the children run around naked and on the road, poverty makes them fundamental boasts wear. Already exhausted, and then to see such a sight, my mood is also down to the extreme. The GH, the strength to eat nothing, had a bath and get your sleep.
