Not so sunny Sunday

If there is one thing you can depend on with the weather where ever you are in the world, you can guarantee when it gets to the weekend and your not working....it will not be as nice!  Lots of cloud today and there was me set up for a lazy day by the pool.  Sun has been beating down when I have been stuck in my hot, hot office.  Not that it wasn't warm today, just not as sunny.  Although all is not lost as I quite like wandering around the centre and sitting down in cafes watching the mad world of Siem Reap go by.

I know these are not really good photos, but I was trying to take them discretely as I didn't want them to notice, seems a bit goulish to be snapping the disabled, but you see so much of this in Cambodia.  People with limbs missing, which I assume is due to the horror of all the landmines that were left after the Khmer Rouge fighting.  I never quite know what to do, after all I can't give them all money.  It is somewhat ironic that there are so many disabled people here, but as a country they are not geared up for the disabled.  I read in one of the travel guides that it would be difficult for disabled travellers to get around Cambodia and I have certainly see a few people in wheelchairs having to get lifted up and down steps to get in places. 

And, yes, I was watching these poor souls as I munched on my lunch and sipped my wine, relaxing back in my comfy seat!! 


 
 
 So I am now about to go out for dinner on my penultimate night out.  Have to admit, I am  starting to get a bit bored with going out!!  Not to mention skint!!  Although I am hoping to find a pub with the Scotland Ireleand rugby game on tonight.  I am sure I spotted one of the bars last night with the Welsh game on, so heading in that direction tonight! 

I noticed one of my FBB's had posted that it was snowing back home....don't want that for my return.  I am use to nothing below 90 F.  Brrrrr.
