It was like Welli had dropped into Cambodia for the weekend, I know we pop up to AK like that but it was all a bit surreal.
Happily surreal i must say, there is nothing like sitting having a yarn with mates in a very different setting. (Picture Welli, but with outdoor dining/drinking, warm breeze and relaxed atmosphere)
Hopefully i fullfilled my role (self-appointed) as Cambodia's roving Ambassador to Welli!
Ably assisted by May and her sister Mom the guys were shown around the sights of Phnom Penh and assisted in making purchases, interacting with the locals and generally enjoying themselves.
Highlights were Jeff laden with purchases moving off to haggle without May's assistence (the lady looked over at May and smiled that "gotcha" smile)
Our after dinner walk along the lovely river boulevard that saw a cpl of Khmer boys larking on a moto crash into a food vender (what happened next we didnt stay to see!) and the remains of a rock throwing battle between a group of Khmer lads. All very unusual and as it is said here very Lop lop possibly even Scoot scoot (yes it has been spelt phonetically)
All in all a great cpl of days, the house is quiet now they've all gone. Hope to see more of them soon
