hello cambodia!

i have been wanting to go to cambodia for years, and it always kinda got left off the schedule. but finally we are off to the land of angkor wat! i am so excited. we first flew into phnom penh.
we had a lovely dinner there, and a young man who managed to entertain us greatly while convincing me to buy three books from him. we finally had to play rock, paper, scissors to agree on a price! it was some lively bargaining, but a great start to our cambodian visit. the next morning we hit the central market, where zoe managed to convince us to buy her a huge (and i am sure, real) ruby heart necklace for six bucks.
then we explored the city for the day. stopping at all the important places...


we even went to the palace, but it was not as shiny as the one in bangkok, or so zoe said. tomorrow we are off to sihanouksville for a bit of beach and sun.
