Batambang

Batambang turned out to be just another small town with nothing interesting to see. Just outside of the town though you could do some day treks and visit a winery. Apparently, the women running it learned how to make wine from her brother who was living in Italy and brought the technique to Cambodia. I was just surprised that Cambodia had a winery. There’s also suppose to be a bamboo train where if another train is coming from the opposite direction everyone gets off, they disassemble the train, and then reassemble it after the other train has passed.

I just ended up walking around town and had planned to take the boat up to Siem Reap to meet up with Fiona. Sadly, the water was low and the $15US trip would have taken 11 hours. Thus I opted for the five hour bus ride ($8US).
