Battambang and the Bamboo Train

We got picked up from the hotel early in the morning and drove from Siem Reap to Battambang which was a long drive.  Once we arrived in Battambang we took a Bamboo train. Well it turns out this is a funniest way of travelling.  You sit on a flat bamboo which is on wheels and ride through the rice fields and villages, they put your bags at the back of the train.  When another train comes from the opposite direction the train with fewer passengers stops then the passengers get off the train and the operator disassembles the train and let the other carriage go through. This train is fast!

My dad and I are getting on a train.

We are getting ready to go

Bye...

  2. Juli, this train is fast, fun and funny. I've never seen anything like it. I can't wait to see you , Daniel Auntie Ann! Tigerlilly and Homer. My mom said we may go to Nepal and Tibet but I don't know when I hope we come to America first. We are in Thailand in Railei and the Internet is on and off.
