We go to the day market in Siem Reap. Fresh fruits and vegetables of a thousand colors, noodles, rice, dried fish, meat... It's hot and we spend some time in a green area by the river. It has wooden bridges covered with benches, it is very cool. There were young people sleeping after a night of partying and an Anglo-Saxon man in his sixties with a young Cambodian woman.

We eat in a restaurant frogs' legs. They are very tasty.

The center of Siem Reap is beautiful, colonial style buildings. We put our feet in a huge fish tank to get exfoliated by the fish, they bite hard, I have a wound on my finger and they bait themselves, but we have a few laughs.
