Well, it's after midnight and I am finally settled in Phnom Penh after one of the longest days ever...approximately 30 hours of flying time starting 6 AM on Sunday. I got into Phnom Penh at 10 PM on Monday night. Anyway, I need to go to sleep, but I will say that the city seems nice, a lot of French-style architecture. It is quite humid but apparently the "hot"months are over and we are entering the cooler monsoon season. I am staying at the Bridges Across Borders volunteer house with about 5 or 6 other interns and I think a few other BAB volunteers and workers too. The house is also the main BAB office so it's where I will be doing most of my work. I am a little overwhelmed, unsurprisingly, but also really excited to be here and get going. We don't start orientation for a couple of days so tomorrow I plan to explore a little bit with some of the other interns.
Time for bed...

Hey Kev, you're blogging! And yes, in case you're wondering, I've been sitting here by my computer checking your blog every 20 second so that I could be the first to post a comment.
Cambodia must be thrilled to have you there, but Ottawa misses you at the same time. I can't wait to keep hearing about your adventures!
Hey! Glad to see that you made it to Cambodia with enough energy to post before bed. Impressive.
We here at Chez Patterson will be checking your blog daily, so please post frequently if time and circumstances permit. Also...kindly note that we enjoy pictures...so go forth, click and upload.
I hope you had a relaxing trip home. Take care!
Hi Kev (and Carly and Brad!)
Did you already get a comment from me? If so -- ignore this one, please.
Anyway, sounds good -- but to second Brad's motion, pics are good1
If you go to Thailand, let me know ahead of time --mMy colleague here, Nino Galfo, moves back there July 4.
Love (Aunt) Sharon
p.s. Having a closing on a blog posting is probably really nerdy, but I don't care...old habits die hard.
Kevin, glad to hear you made it in one piece. Don't do anything dumb, as hard as that may be.
hehehe. Have fun, and TAKE PICTURES!
Good to know you're still alive bro! Ha ha ha. Take care and take lots of pictures!
