Drama, romance and adventure, Cambodian style! Join us this week for the premiere episode!”

I didn’t even know there was ‘black rice’ wine until I saw this $1 bottle. Red, White, medicinal… seen it, tried it. Still looking for Toad Wine.
So I brought it along to that Friday’s art show, which took place at a wine bar (like coals to Newcastle) to test it out. The label says it’s certified by the Ministry of Industry, which doubtless means it should be OK.
After that it was all a haze.

Sun, sea, & sand made for a good getaway last weekend in Sihanoukville.
I was interested to export tube surfing from Siem Reap to the South, but the tides and tubes weren’t working with me. Next time.
Lots of fun just people watching the mix on Ochuteal beach. For some, it’s an exotic vacation destination. For others, it’s another working day.
