We just got to battambang and it's a pretty cool town. We were met at the bus stop by a swarm of tuk tuk drivers who wanted you Togo to their hotel. We went to a hotel where are room with two beds is $5. Try use the the US dollar here except change is there currency. We are going to go in the bamboo train and our driver is charging us for about 2 hours of work $3. The drivers English is actually really good. He has like an Australian accent.
Well Battambang was a bit of a pass through town. We had fun riding the bamboo train and wandering the markets. I just got a massage from a blind guy that was far and away the deepest massage I have had. It's interesting the disables people almost always have to learn skills. Some play in bands at the temples, some massages, there is a group in siem reap who are artists. As a result it seems I'm the cities we have visited so far there is less begging.
