We decided to rest on our first two days in Siem Reap. After a day like the last (the border crossing), we badly needed to recharge. Wandering around, we tried to acquaint ourselves with Cambodian life, away from the tourist center. The weather wasn't so great when we arrived, but it was sunny enough in the morning, but it rained in the afternoons.

Dried fish in the market. Sophia of the guest house said
this is the food Cambodians like most. |
 |
| Various spices. They can give India a run for their spicy money! |
 |
| Went to the other side of the river to see if we can find another place to stay in. |

Sitting at the fountain in front of the Raffles.
After some debate, we decided to stay put at the center,
where all the pubs and restos are, and save ourselves a bit of a walk. |

Henri took the crappy sunglasses I bought in Khao San the day before.
The woman said it's "not made in China, made in Thailand, made in Thailand better!"
Well one side broke no more than 24 hours later... |
