It's been pretty quiet here in Phnom Penh. We arrive on Tuesday, and since then I've been pretty much lying low. I'm ok with that though - I found that in Bangkok, I just focused on my work during the week, and on the weekend had enough time to see everything I wanted to see. I do have a few things planned for this weekend and I am looking forward to them.
I also managed to do something to my knee on Tuesday after I got here. Once I got settled in to the hotel (which sadly, is nothing like the hotel in Bangkok - it's more like 70's era Holiday Inn furniture and bathroom), I decided to go for a little walk, and see what was in the near vicinity. Well, there isn't much, aside from the tuk-tuk and motorcycle taxi drivers every 10 feet, each of whom as if I want a ride. I came back and had lunch at the hotel, and when I got up, noticed something not right about my knee - it had all of a sudden swollen up and I could barely walk. I hobbled back to my room, barely, to assess the situation. Ice was order from room service, and I spent the rest of the day with my leg up in bed. It's still a little swollen, but today I was able to walk fairly normally. I'm hoping that by Saturday it will be doing even better, and I'll feel like I can go out and see some stuff. I have to admit, even in Bangkok when it wasn't swollen, I was disappointed that I couldn't do as much walking as I might have been able to a year ago. Just something I still have to keep working on!
