Back in Bangkok, phew

I'm posting from Bangkok, finally, two days until I fly home. Tia and I arrived late last night after an all day marathon hell-mission from Sihanoukville, in south-western Cambodia. The first leg of the journey to the Thai border included 4 river crossings and a broken accelerator in our minibus in a large expanse of Cambodian jungle (read: the middle of nowhere). Luckily, we had an old mechanically-minded Frenchman (Jean) traveling with us, who rigged up a pull-string to the accelerator. So for the next 2 hours, our driver handled the steering and shifting, and Jean did the accelerating. Interesting, to say the least. Crossing the border was a cinch, as was the border-Bangkok ride, and my passport is now entirely full. Gotta get some filler pages when I get home...

Sieburg and Mike are in town as well, flying out soon, and we're hoping to rendezvous again sometime today. Maybe we'll see Hero tonight?
