Another place we went to in Cambodia was a kampong(village). We took a riverboat on Tonle Sap Lake to get there. At the village, went to the school, were they were learning "If Your Happy and You Know it Clap Your Hands" We sang that with the schoolchildren. I got asked a bunch of questions because the students rarely get a chance to practise English. We also saw big mats with THOUSANDS of shrimp on them! After exploring the village, we ate a lunch of fish from the river, vegtables, and rice. On the way back home, we passed the famous floating village. It was a wonderful day!

I'm just amazed at all the various experiences you are having, William! What a wonderful opportunity to learn. Thanks for passing on your adventures so we can catch a glimpse. We're eager to see Grandpa and Grandma's pictures too when they return home.
Love,
Aunt Amy
Great Blog!! We really enjoyed being at Kampong Pluhk. It was not a tourist trap! There is a great satellite image of Kampong Pluhk on Google Earth at 13 degrees 12' 35.22"N, 103 degrees 58' 24.04"E.
Looking forward to your blogs, William.
Love, Grandpa M.
