Phnom Penh

Well, if the orphan story didn't make you sad enough, I'll try again. Today we were in Phnom Penh and visited the Killing Fields and S21, a detention center where victims were tortured and interrogated before being sent to death at the Killing Fields. I don't have any pictures from this part of the trip, as I felt a little uncomfortable taking pictures where millions died.

S21 looks almost exactly as it did they day it was liberated, including beds and shackles and photos of the victims. There was barbed wire and iron bars covering all the windows. Truly a depressing place that showed how disgusting humans can be to each other.

We decided to lighten the mood by going out to dinner at the riverfront with Ianne's friend Ryan and Jamie's friend Adam. Thanks for a great night guys!

We're off to the beach!
