Here are more photos from Siem Reap. One is of the line-up of 
people at the children's hospital that is sponsored 90 % by private donation. Taking your children here is absolutely free for Cambodian people, all people must are treated the same regardless of their wealth or poverty, and there are only two of over 2100 staff that are foreigners. 
The hospital, one of 5 in Cambodia, trains Cambodian doctors and nurses and pays them a decent wage. Even the cleaning staff earn reasonable wages of $250 per month. That is in stark contrast to the teachers we met who had a starting wage of about $40 per month increasing to almost $60 per month after 20 years of teaching. It is impossible to be cheap in this country when $1 here and $1 there makes such a difference in the lives of the impoverished. We have been very humbled.
The other pictures are of temples and our tuk-tuk driver and things we saw. They are a few of hundreds, but they will suffice for the purposes of letting you all know some of the things we've seen.
