Ok, well, cold might be an extreme word to use, but the past few nights have gotten fairly chilly (Chris has actually put a blanket on at night the last two nights!!!) It was something like 68 degrees here in Phnom Penh late this morning and we were told that in Battambang it got down to 55 overnight!!
I know this sounds like nothing for all of you back there in the states who are buried in snow....but for us here...that's gettin' downright chilly! ;o) And for sure for the Khmer it is COLD!!
When we got to church this morning (in our pants and short sleeved shirts, mind you) all of our friends were bundled up in multiple layers of clothes, some with coats on and they were all muttering about how terribly cold it was. And for sure for people who have always lived in a country that rarely sees the temperature drop in the mid-50's and mid-60's it IS, indeed, cold!
As for us...we're gonna enjoy it as long as it lasts. And I'm personally hoping it lasts a few more WEEKS!

That is COLD for over there! Well, here we're hovering right about 30-35 during the day lately. I wonder what Cambodia would do if it ever snowed!
