Watching the sun rise over the Mekong

The Quay, a small, boutique hotel a block and a half away from the FCC-Phnom Penh and Herb's Happy Pizza (which makes the happiest and one of the best tasting meat sauces I have ever had!).  The room:  spartan but modern with a patio overlooking the river.

Yes, there has been noticeable change in economic status/development here....but go one or two streets 'deep', behind the facade and the poverty of 14 years ago is still here.......yes, Tijuana of the mid-50s is still thriving.....albeit, half-way around the world in Cambodia.....
