We started the day with some breakfast. It was alright. Then we went to my mom's uncle's house to make arrangements for the ceremony. Unfortunately, we can't get things planned as quickly as we'd like. So tomorrow we'll head back to Phnom Penh and spend the night there. The following day we'll head out to the coast for some sightseeing and then back to Battambang for the ceremony and then to Siem Reap for the last bit of sightseeing and then home.
Most of the day today was spent at the relative's making arrangments. There were all these little kids there and they were all over Linda and me. They kept patting our fat arms and saying things like "how did your leg get so big?" Linda played several games with the kids and until she got pooped from the heat and running around.
Then one of the kids brought out a deck of cards and I taught them how to play blackjack. I gave the kids all my gum and fruit so they could use it to bet.

I don't know what it is, but I got several bug bites out there at the house. They had a small dog that I wanted to pet but it kept scratching itself so I didn't touch it for fear of fleas. Also, I saw one of the little girl's mother pick and squish a lice from her head. Ewww.
The weather has been really mild, thankfully. The one bad thing is that everyone seems to burn their garbage here and the air is smoke filled. It's horrible.
Linda and I got some pool time this afternoon. Which was pretty fun.
Ok, that's it for today. Hopefully, the next post will be more exciting.
