a Cambodian picnic - part three

as you have probably read parts one and two by now, you will know that we are packed up and ready to head back to Siem Reap after our Cambodian Picnic and a visit to the waterfall.

here we watch one family - a large family - all clamber onto the truck for the trip back home....
we lost count of the number of people climbing on, but once they were all on the truck I doubt they could have fitted anyone else!
here is the driver putting on a bottle of fuel to make sure it will go the distance.....

Fuel (petrol) is sold in plastic one litre bottles along the side of the main road or at the villages rather than going to a petrol or fuel station.

closing up the truck and then they slide another long bar across the back area before the truck departs...
all aboard and they are on their way .....
..... back home to the local village or perhaps to Siem Reap!
bye everyone

we had a great time at Koulen National Park on our Cambodian Picnic!
