Killin time ain’t easy
Prolly not down 3 Dr. P’s and watch a full season of the wire. Well…too bad.
Sunday was a slow day. A really, really slow day. I mean the type of day where you’re watching ants just to get a few ideas. Out of desperation and a situation similar to Noriega and the Armed Forces (7 day funeral across the street with music that is truly loud enough and bad enough to make you mourn on a whole new level how much you wish the man hadn’t died), I trekked over to BCDO (Botam Sakor Community Development Organization) to see what was going on over there. Well, as luck would have it, there were a few Brits (which usually makes me cringe) who were traveling through the area and wanted to go on a jungle hike. 
A few hours later, we were on a boat headed out to some secluded waterfall. What Lim neglected to tell any of us, was that this hike would take 4 hours, include some seriously precarious climbs, gushing waterfalls, a plethora of leeches and a few water snakes for good measure. Gotta love the Khmer sense of “aht ey yeh” (No big deal)..my ass.
Granted, I could have done without the 15+ leech bites, the bruising on my leg, arm and face that make it look like I was the victim of a bad argument, it was a pretty bomb way to spend the afternoon. Now, just to mention to him how dangerous that was and maybe convince them to scale it back a bit for less ‘adventurous’ individuals (aka anyone not out of their mind, or not Cambodian). Saw some sights, had a few good laughs and slept for 14 hours after…
