Holiday in Cambodia

Phnom Penh might have just usurped La Paz as the weirdest capital city I've been to. Within the first evening we'd seen a stray elephant, watched mass aerobics in the park and been jumped by a gang of ladyboys.

On a less frivolous note we spent today between the Killing Fields and S21. It's not been the most happy-go-lucky day of the trip.

Weirdest Food: Obviously this is going to be weird: take your pick from crickets (pork scratchings with legs), beetles (burnt chocolate with a shell) or maggots (pop-in-your-mouth disgusting). Incidentally it turns out that beggars can be choosers; when I gave a beggar half a bag of assorted, deep-fried insects they seemed less than grateful.
