Another Day, Another 5 Temples

Inflation hit Cambodia hard today. Yesterday we were offered t-shirts for $3 and ate lunch for $2.50, but we felt like suckers today. We were feeling pretty good after negotiating a $1.50 breakfast, but it went downhill after that. $11 for a t-shirt! Getting those t-shirts down to $4 was like trying to negotiate a prisoner exchange, but both Greg and I got some Angkor Beer shirts. Souvenir from Cambodia - Check.

It was much hotter today than yesterday. Our tuk tuk driver took us to a location for sunset that didn't have any temples - just an open lake and the sun didn't show its face through the thick haze on the horizon. Greg was apocalyptically cross about this. Then he thought he lost his lens hood at aforementioned lake. It had the makings of a long day. I began to fear for my own safety, but we requested to return to one of the sites from yesterday - and were the only ones there. Shortly thereafter Greg found his lens hood and he was quite happy.

Tonight we head to Hanoi in Vietnam. Hopefully customs goes smoothly. We have pieces of paper with our names and about 17 others who are arriving that day. Allegedly these papers allow us to get visas on arrival. Check back on the blog to make sure we actually make it through. Bye bye Cambodia.
