A half a dozen pick-up trucks stopped for a quick pee and snack break in this small and friendly village on the way between Siem-Reap and Phnom Penh.. There are probably 10 or more of these trucks and mini-buses, not counting private 4x4s and large trucks going each way every day of the week. They all depart around 0630 to 0700 and meet about half-way. It's a seven hour trip, including an hour for several short and one long lunch stop in Kampong Thom, about midway. No one drives these roads after dark. They are simply too difficult to negotiate.
