The Circle of Life

We ate lunch at a restaurant next to one of the more remote temples in Angkor Wat in Cambodia.This is a good example of the plunging levels of hygiene that I found acceptable under the circumstances. The kids loved this place. It had dirt floors, no walls and there were some workers sleeping in hammocks about 10 feet from the tables. A dog wandered around the place as did a chicken.

We ordered chicken with rice and the kids asked me whether the chicken that was walking around and eating the spilled bits of chicken with rice was actually a cannibal chicken and if it would end up getting eaten next by other people who wanted chicken to eat. Then Abby started reflecting on The Lion King and the circle of life.

Best of all somebody spotted a walking stick on the ground in front of the restaurant. Its one of those weird bugs that actually does look like a stick with legs.

Rice, Sprite, cannibal chickens, dogs and walking sticks. What more could you want?
