Took another motorbike tour today and, as usual, had a blast.

At the end of the day my driver and I took a bamboo train back to Battambang (see the last picture). This was a bamboo platform about 6x10 feet that runs on the train tracks. It's powered by a engine that looks like it came from a lawnmower. When someone wants to use one they just put it together from parts lying by the side of the track. When we caught up with one that was having engine problems they just dismantled it and set it aside so we could get by. Quite a interesting mode of transport.



Tomorrow morning I catch a boat to Siem Reap for the Ankor temples.
