The Flight

In an effort to give a bit more detail I'll fill in each of our days one by one. First off was an indeterminate amount of time in the air and airports en route from LAX to Taiwan, Bangkok and finally Phnom Penh. This took us about 48 hours as we left Monday morning (16th) and were in Cambodia for Wednesday morning. Notable memories include:

1. China Airlines is pretty good with excellent entertainment consoles at each seat. But only if you are 5 foot 4 and smaller plus do not have a broken leg.

2. Taiwan airport staff could not have been more helpful with getting Tracy around.

3. Airline food has not improved any.

4. Cambodia is a very wet place. As we flew in all you can see is water. I guess this is the end of the rainy season and the water backs up the Mekong River and floods. As the floods recede (they have started already) rice is planted in the paddies. This makes the county really green and lush right now.

5. We met our friends in Bangkok at 1am, saving us from 5 hours of airport hell and replacing that with a shower and 3am beers (hey, it was 4pm or so back home!).
