Guess who we ran into?

As hard as it might be to believe, when we were hanging at our hotel, Dave went next door to use the internet and saw the brother of his friend, Jake. Dave asked about Jake and what do you know? He LIVES in Cambodia too. So he called Jake up and Jake and Dave got to hang out for the night.

The next day, after visiting the museums and doing some more sightseeing, we hung out with Jake and his wife. We went to their beautiful house and visited the nearby market. The market was overflowing with brand name clothes at dirt cheap prices. But these were the actual brand name clothes which either got stolen from, or discarded by the sweatshops.

Jake's family made us a delicious lunch and then we made a mad dash for the bus to Siem Reap.

It was so good to see you and your family Jake!! Thanks for taking the time to show us another side of Cambodia.
