Hola La Niña!

The following pictures are of the S-21 Prison (Toul Sleng) run by the Khmer Rouge during Pol Pot's reign of terror. Approximately 20,000 people were tortured and killed from 1975 to 1979 at this former high school. Only 7 people survived this place.

Next up was the killing fields; not much to see except a whole bunch of the mass-burial pits left over from the Khmer Rouge.

My friends John and Pam DeVolder (left) and Barry Flaming at a German restaurant where we had dinner in Phnom Penh. Pam and John were working for the US Embassy there and were just finishing their 2-year tenure. They had some amazing, and at times, quite depressing stories of working with the incredibly corrupt Cambodian government. Next up for them: Malawi, Africa.
A couple of pic's of Pam and John's daughter, Isabelle.

Another photo of Pam and John DeVolder, Lawan Vongchindarak, and Barry Flaming.
Downtown Phnom Penh on one of the few paved roads in the city.
Cool french architecture that's completely falling apart throughout the city.
