Visit to Cambodia in 10/2002

It was the first time that I went to Cambodia at the same time as Boney who came down from Dallas, USA. It was also the first time that Fr. Vincent met him since he left for the USA in 1990.

During that visit we had spent good time with friends in Phnom Penh. We went also to visit deep-Cambodia in Borvel, Battambang with Vansak, Khan Vuthy and Sovannara. It was strange to me to go to visit my birthplace which I didn't recognize. The roads to go there were very very bad and dusty with a lot of potholes. At the end of day, my ass were on fire! The very strange thing to me was that there were plenty of Chinese graves in the rice fields; I didn't think that there were a lot of chinese-cambodians in that area.

We visited also Bangkok where we were greatly received by our friend Sunnary who lived overthere at the time. Thank you Sunnary for your hospitaly!

Below are some pictures in Sang Raing, near Borvel. As you can see, the cooks were with us to make our lives easier :-) Thank you guys!






After lunch Sovanara took a bath in the river in front of the house.
