Arrival!

Made it to Phnom Penh safe and sound.  Landed, with another intern and her husband, around mid-day and was greated by the head Doctor and his cousin, who is a 3-Star General in the Cambodian Military", and is aptly nickamed "the General".  We were taken to our guest house (equivalent of an inn) where we washed up and then headed out for a tourof the killing fields and torture camps...an incredibly humbling experience, especially considering these were used so recently there was still blood on he floor in many of the cells. With a military escort it made touring the city an extremely unique experiece. What an exciting and wild place!

After a long day...it's time for a hot shower and a good nights rest...many hours to travel tomorrow to get to our first Clinic.

Yours in Service.
