Day 55 God Squad

28/04/13
My alarm sounded at 6 so I reset it for 7 and fell back to sleep almost straight away. 07.00 came round far too quickly though. For the fifth day in a row I hired a bike (although it does feel like I have a case of bikers bottom). I cycled 16km to the Roluos temples, smaller and less visited than the Angkor ones, but they're still mightily impressive. For lunch I went to a cafe called Sister Srey, I had been there before but came back today because they do a roast on Sundays. It was more expensive than I would normally pay for lunch but it was a huge portion and worth every penny (or even cent). There was more heavy rain just after lunch but thankfully it cleared up quickly, although it does seem to look like we have reached the start of the wet season. At 16.00 I turned up to the Christian Fellowship of Siem Reap which was holding a service at said time. It is an international church so it spoke English which made a nice change to other foreign churches I have been to, I also knew most of the worship songs which was an added bonus. As usual they asked all the new people to stand up and say our names and where we're from. After the service a guy came up to me and introduced himself, it turned out he was from Cambridge and was here with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) and was excited to talk to another English person as it had been some time since he last had. He also introduced me to a couple of other team members, including a cute American girl,who definitely had the hots for me. I bumped into them in town but they had already eaten so I went to grab some food and then went to meet them. But I couldn't find them which was a bummer. I might see them in Thailand though because they are spending 2 weeks whilst I am there too,it just depends which end of the country I am in.

Some areas still haven't caught up with the 20th century, let alone the 21st!
