On the way home from Kampot

On the way home we suddenly started hearing a funny noise. We pulled over and found out why. See photo.

Neither of us has ever changed a tyre, but Soeun managed to take off this one and put on the spare one in the boot. We went back to the nearest town and got a new tyre after that.

While we waited for them to work out the old one couldn't be fixed, and to put the new one on I amused myself by watching the traffic. It was really hot and dusty, but it was interesting to see a two men and a bike riding a bike, and to count how many people on each moto.
Or try to guess how many people in and on each van, and marvel at the amazingly big loads hanging off the back. See photo!

As it was the kings birthday Cambodian flags lined the streets as you might be able to see here. A common sight is that huge sign with the Prime Minister and two other important people, can you see it?
