At a local rest stop market some of the choices were krispy fried Tarantulas, small crickets, large crickets, and small songbirds. Needless to say there were no takers in our group, but a few people let a live Tarantula sit on their arm. I was not one of them.
Our team in Cambodia is not quite as we'll oiled as the one in Vietnam, but now we are installed for 3 nights in Siam Reap which is the gateway to the temples of Angkor Wat. The food in Cambodia is fragrant with spices but not hot ones, unlike Vietnam, and we have had some wonderful meals. Phnom Penh is a very nice city, wide streets, nice restaurants and shops. There were way more cars than in Vietnam due to the fact that they are allowed to have a secondary market. You see huge SUVs mostly from the USA and when they arrive they still have their American plates.
