Flying to Phnom Penh January 25
The cipro finally seems to be kicking in. I seem no longer to have the shits, and am feeling a lot better.
I’ve been geeking out since flying down to Phnom Penh yesterday. At that point I was still having major stomach cramps and the shits, but I couldn’t bear to spend another day in Ban Lung, what with the dust and nothing to do. I’ve been talking with Chris a lot on IM about nanotech and property ownership and the third world. Interesting stuff. It’s taking a lot of brain power to think about though, particularlly when I’m tryin got code perl at the same time.
Flying from Ban Lung to Phnom Penh is like changing worlds. From a dusty airstrip with an open air terminal (little more than a shack with a corrugated iron roof), to a full international airport.
I saw ran into Mette, one of the bicycle gang from Tad Lo. She bought a bicycle in Bangkok, and has ridden here. I was going to meet up with her and a friend of hers at sunset by the lake, but I had to go to bed with stomach cramps instead. She left early this morning, before I got up.
