Hi Gringo Gus,

THIS is why I love foldies - they help us explore all these exotic places so effortlessly. Now you got me going, here's more pics about Phnom Penh. It is truly 3rd world in many sense eg poor roads, corruption, guns still available, might is right etc but it is certainly an experience that is a must-do. The people are exceptionally warm and friendly too. I hope you guys can pop in one day, foldies in tow, of course.


The Royal Palace and Royal Museum


Tuol Sleung S21 - Khmer Rouge Torture Centre - a grim reminder of Cambodia's dark past


Phnom Penh Monument - inspired by the ruins of Angkor Wat


Bopha, one of many orphans. HIV is rampant. Taking donations for a new foldie for her


Not quite fried spiders but fried bugs. Crickets I think. My Cambodian friends say they are delicious. I dare not try, yet.


Speaking of Angkor Wat, I did a race there 2 years back on a Brompton. It was unforgettable!
