We (Ellie and Maddie) are in Battambang, Cambodia. Yesterday we took a ride on the famous Bamboo train, a platform made of bamboo that can be easily disassembled when approaching an actual train or another cart going the other direction. Earsplitting, bumpy, and actually pretty fast, we sped through the dry countryside to a small village where we followed a boy to his home. There, we were greeted by a 7 foot boa constrictor: the family's dinner. The kids in the brick-making village were eager to practice their English with us, and made us grass rings and bracelets. Cambodians are so friendly!
Tomorrow we are heading south to Phnom Penh to meet up with Maura, before flying to Thailand!
Behold! The cheesiest tourist pictures to date!
