We're in Siem Reap








After two nights at Arn's home on the Mekong River we traveled 5 hours by van yesterday to Siem Reap where we will spend the next 10 days with Man Men's music class in Wat Bo and his village. We ate well at Arn's and settled in to a relaxed Cambodian pace with little to do except watch the Mekong rush past. Emma and Jake helped cook our first lunch of fish and soup. OUr breakfast yesterday was just bread and a sweetened cold coffee drink, so we snacked on tarantula midmorning on our drive. I will try to post some photos but it takes more time than I may have now. We are off for breakfast and a walk to Wat Bo for the first music class.

  • charlie? is that you? wow! you guys look great. i mean that, really . . . no, REALLY.

    sitting here in the english office (listening, i might add, to some very excellent straight-ahead dave brubeck), i'm thinking that you all are the first of no doubt many outstanding adventures not only on this trip, but in the rest of your lives. what an amazing beginning!how many americans can say they've eaten tarantula? (was it kind of furry?)

    anyway. i'm thinking of you all most often. take care . . .
