FIRST NIGHT IN CAMBODIA

We are over the river from the main downtown area so first night, we walk over the bridge to a recommended fusion restaurat. All very classy, people have dressed to the nines, smart sandals, long skirt and white jacket. I have put on my new $3 cotton pants and black shell, but I feel good enough in the dark. They love to have it all dark and bring you folding flashlights to read the menu. I still need my iphone flashlight. We order nice typical local food, but mine comes - not a piece of honey roasted chicken, but a chicken salad with way too much chili for my poor we sore mouth, which is proving a problem here. I nibble away on the salad, rice and some of Ted's fish stew in coconut and spices, cooked in a banana leaf. Polished service, garden location, very nice for $35 with 3 half liters of beer!
  We stumble back over the bridge and hit the bed at 9pm in our cool, quiet room and sleep for a long time.
