Tonle Sap Lake, is the largest freshwater lake in South East Asia. Our main intention is to see how families live in the floating village.
Let the pictures do the talking. =P
On the way, there are many many lotus despite the heat!
They even sell the raw lotus for “raw” consumption!
Then after a bumpy ride (dusty but thank god we got Sam’s air-cond Camry!), we got to the pretty dry lake (cos its the hot season) =)
Then Sara took over the “wheels” to be our “driver”
And we are ready to go!
Actually that’s our driver. =) PRetty cool guy! The white shirt guy is Sam, trying to tell our boat driver to take good care of us…
But Sam forgotten we got our “Big Sister”, Sara!
I remember this is their police (something like Marine Police) office
Locals going on their daily life
Then our drive stop by halfway to fill up petrol.
Check out how dangerous!
See how the small floating houses can accommodate lots of ppl
See how they store the woods & sampan!
This is the famous USD1 sign!
And this is their sports area (i.e. basketball,etc)
Then the boat driver drove us to the floating “kedai runcit” (grocery store) asking us to buy some books and stationary for the kids in a nearby school. Something like a donation la
We bought some exercise books and pencils (its not cheap, alright!) and when we reach the school, i was like suprised by the number of children in there!
Then we took pictures with the kids.
But I kinda like this girl. She look soOOoo sweet, no?
After that, we drop by to the floating restaurant
We didn’t order any food but we gotta play with snake, i mean sara play with snakes
And I get to post with real crocodile skin!
Time for Group Picture
We round the village for a while before heading back. =)
Even kids can row!
Fruits anyone?
Some random picture, I thought Mei Sim looks cute. =P
Our driver drove us to this end, saying we should stand at the end of the boat to take picture (cos this is where no houses is visible and its like taking picture at the horizon). =)
Then its time to head back! aha!
Hope you love the pictures! =)
love, blurdevil
