Cambodian Adventure!

Greeting from Cambodia! I know it is early, but Happy Easter to all! I am probably not going to be on a computer before Easter. Okay so I know you all want pictures and I promise I have a lot of good ones, but i left my cord and David's grandmother's house so I will not be able to post pictures for at the very least a week, but maybe closer to two. Have no fear, I am putting in a link to David's pics, a couple of which have me in them. As for the scenery, we were all seeing the same stuff anyway. So check out his pics here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2230674&l=9bebc&id=3300453 and also please read his and Nick's blogs. They have big updates that I am not going to be able to do right now. The links are on the right. But quickly, Kevin and I left the other guys in Siem Reap, Cambodia, when they went back to Thailand and we stayed. We took a boat to Battambang, but the river was too low so the boat could not make it all the way and we had to take a "bus". By "bus" I mean a Toyota pickup truck picked up everyone from the boat and took us the rest of the way on the "road". The "road" was literally a dirt path built for a motorcycle for the first 14 kilometers. There were 19 of us in the bed, plus the luggage. Luckily the truck had 4WD and no one fell out. Today we took a real bus to the capital Pnohm Pehn, and we saw the National Museum. As Nick says, we plan on doing some dirt biking. We are renting them tomorrow so we can take the road less traveled and see some more temples. But no one worry! Safety first! We will be careful. Cambodian Adventure! I will tell you all about it when I next get to a computer! So read the other guy's blogs, they have a lot more detail on the last week or so! That is all for now! I miss you all!--Mark

You are brave to go into Phanom Penn. You have the phone number of David's Grand-Mother. Please call, if you need help in Cambodia.

Good Luck!
