Flag of Cambodia Battembang, Cambodia
Monday, March 26, 2007

There isn't a huge amount I can say bout Battembang. Its Cambodia's second biggest city although you wouldn't know that. After 9pm there is absolutely no life there at all, in fact there's barely even bloody street lights.

01. One of the local Hells Angels

So we ended up hiring out three guides to take us around the area and ended up having a great day. It was bloody hot and we were bloody dirty, owning to the fact that all the roads around are dirt roads but ended up seeing some great stuff including gate crashing a local wedding and nearly dying on a bamboo train

43. About to set off
