Cambodia, Part I

32-This Japanese ship, the Kunisaki, met us in Vietnam and has also come with USNS Mercy to Cambodia.

33-Gari (nurse from Boise, Idaho) at Serendipity Beach at Sihanoukville, Cambodia.


34-A Cambodian food vendor at Serendipity Beach, Sihanoukville, Cambodia.


35-Gari (nurse from Boise, Idaho) and Liz (ophthalmologist from Sydney, Australia) take a ride in a Tuk Tuk (with Jeff and Helen) around Sihanoukville, Cambodia. A photo of the Tuk Tuk will be coming later. By the way, when I told Liz that Mikel had been a member of the marching band that played at the opening ceremonies for the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, she said that she had attended the opening ceremonies, and had probably seen him.


36-At the Market in Sihanoukville, Cambodia, standing by one of the fruit sections. The market is huge, with open ends, and many aisles. I've been there twice, and haven't yet seen the whole thing.


37-Kelli tries her hand at some impromptu badminton in front of one of the shops near the market in Sihanoukville, Cambodia.


38-At sunset, our Tuk Tuk driver drove us to the fishing village where his family lives. The dook (boat) just to the left of center is about to depart on a five day round trip to Thailand.


39-The family of the captain of the boat that is leaving for Thailand lives in the house to the right, and our Tuk Tuk driver's family lives in the green house just to its left.

How about if I try out some of my Cambodian on you?

Sooh suh-day.

Sohk sa-baay day?

(Hi. My name is Nelson. I'm an American. How are you?)
