We have arrived

After traveling for nearly 24 hours from Chicago to Siem Reap, we arrived in town around 10:30 PM and made it to the hotel about an hour later. It was very humid when we stepped on the tarmac and loaded our five bags on the bus, which had AC. The hotel smells a bit like moth balls and there is the inevitable quirkiness of all things not American, like a spray hose next to the toilet to serve as a bidet. Today we'll explore the town where we'll live for the next year. This is going to be an adventure.
