The Floating Village in Siem Reap was probably one of my favorite parts of the trip. The village is comprised of Cambodian and Vietnamese fishers. When I asked our boat, uh, captain (?), if they get along, he replied, "Oh yeah, no problem. And the Vietnamese women...very beautiful."

The Floating Village school. We were told that in order to attend this school, the children must pass a swimming test because there are so many students, some might fall in and drown.

As we were leaving the school, this little girl (no more than 7 years old), hopped on this boat, paddled maniacally, and then she was off. Was it her boat? Did she take some else's for a joy ride? I hope the latter.
