There's something metaphorical in the above statement, which is on the first sign you see on entering Angkor Wat Temple.
And, today (a few days after this photo was taken) the girls and I went to climb a nearby temple hill and were given a similar multiple choice:
1. The safety way
2. The danger way
3. The elephant way
Despite the fact that some nameless minion at Vietnam Airlines canceled our ongoing flights from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, we are having a great time. (And we didn't mind the inconvenience anyway... after refusing to let us board any of the three remaining flights that day (they were all full, of course) they fed us and got us a mini-van and away we went by road...for the next five hours.) We met up with Grandma and Grandpa by nightfall.
We have settled in at the Sala Bai Hospitality school hotel, and have sorted Apsara dance lessons at the School of Arts in the mornings. In the afternoons, we are going to play Engish games and do arts and crafts at an orphanage called Sangkheum School on the edge of town.
We are looking forward to all sorts of possibilities...
