Mice

Cambodia is awesome.

The people here are amazingly warm and genuinely friendly. It's very different than Bangkok. Much slower and not so darn hectic. The kids are SO cute, too. I'll have to post some pictures.

An hour ago I sat down at the internet cafe down the street to catch up on emails and blog stuff when 10 minutes in the power went out. Nobody was fazed by this except for me. I explained that mom was worried and i had to sent her an email. Everyone felt bad, but there's not much they could do! Now power is back (I took advantage of the time to have some delicious banana pancakes for breakfast) but I'm about to head out with my new friends from UNC to see some temples. Our tuk tuk driver's name is Bali. We pay him $12 to drive us around all day. Not a bad price!

There are mice playing under the cart that my computer is on. They keep running between this one and the one next to me and just started climbing up the partition in between. Again, this is something very normal to everyone else. My feet however, are perched up off the floor on my chair. Eeek!

I met up with David and Emily, my friends who are honeymooning here, last night. I kind of stalked them and showed up at their guest house. To be fair I thought we were meeting up but I messed up upon the day. I don't usually hunt people down on their honeymoons :) They're at a really swank spot - much nicer than my $6 per night room (which is actually much nicer than you'd expect!).

Bali is waiting. Love to you all. Tomorrow mid-day I'll be making my way to Vietnam. I'm moving so fast!
