Splashing around

Having fun in the hot mid-day sun

With the unseasonal rain we've been having in Phnom Penh for the last four days - the heavens open up, the lightning flashes, the thunder rolls and the rains fall - I thought I'd post a water picture, taken on my recent 'ride from hell' between Stung Treng and Tbeng Meanchey, when Tim and myself spent eleven hours on the backs of motos, making our way into Preah Vihear province, the hard way. At one village en route, we came across this group of children taking advantage of a river to cool down and have some fun.

The children manage to stop splashing around long enough for a group shot
