2/4 Monks and Umbrellas

Needed a break from the beach so went into town.  In just an hour, got to see such a different side of the city.  Watched two monks going from business to business with there begging bowls.  Bright orange robes and umbrellas. At night we decided to walk through the local or Khmer half of the beach.  Again such a different perspective.  Khmer: little chairs.  Fluorescent lights. Fireworks. Swimming with your clothes on. Kids playing.  Lots of bbq'd squid. Lots of beer and wine. Western side: soft yellow lights. Big chairs and tables.  Swimming with close to nothing on.  Kids selling. Lots of Lots of beer and wine.  Interesting to say the least.
