We bicycled 47 km today. We reached the cambodia border at about noon. Our visas were processed without problems--we had been told it was $25 each but were only charged $20 each so it must have been discount day. We passed many tapioca farms with them harvesting. The poverty is much more pronouced than in Thailand. The children enjoy waving and yellin "hello" or "banana" (I think one of the few English words they know). We are staying at Memorial Palace & Resort in Pailin City. The Cardamon hills are a focal point.
At the border we changed vans. bikes and helmets. We have a new driver "Sam". Our guide, Pheap, is doing a good job. His home is Cambodia.
