Things to do…

There is always something to do here Phnom Penh…hit a market, find a new coffee shop, ride an elephant or take cruise up the river…

Soooo…5 days ago when ALL of us where healthy, before:

  • the mama got food poisoning, knocking her down for 2 days and 5 pounds of “liquid weight” (use your imagination) gone!  Throwing up, fever of 103 and doubled over in the bathroom 3 times an hour for 12 hours.  NOT fun.
  • the big brother caught a cold, which turned into an infection, has been home from school for 3 days straight and is now on zithro, 2 steroids, albuterol & cough syrup
  • the babies are cutting teeth and have nasty runs and snotty noses

We got to do this: 

For $5 total (me, 3 kids and 3 helpers)…we took an evening cruise on the river…

The bridge is Diamond Bridge, where the catastrophe during the Water Festival happened.  The tall tower with the 2 cranes is in our development:

I wasn’t too trusting of the boat AND Zach’s ability to listen, so we stuck together while the babes were loved on by Khamary, Leak & Mr. To!
