Crazy Layover

Now I've had some crazy layovers in the past, one involving a missed flight and a possible extra 2 days stay in China but one of the best ones was on my trip from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap. Usually one takes a boat from the capital to Siem Reap but since it was a little into the dry season, a good part of the trip was on the bus first.

When we got off the bus at the "ferry" terminal I noticed that we had been dropped off at a village next to the river. With no announcements or anything, the bags were unloaded and us bewildered, mostly foreign, passengers watched as the bus left.

The locals, who were starting to gather assured us though a ferry would be on the way soon. So in the meantime we made ourselves as comfortable as possible and soon the game of people watching began. Here's my favorite local who decided to come on a bike to see what the fuss was about.
