Happy New Year!
We spent new year’s eve riding from Battambong to Pursat, which is approximately 110 km. Children would yell hellloooooooo from the side of the road and others would repeat it hellohellohellohello! Wewere awake at 4 am and we pulled in at about 2-3 pm. I felt completely and utterly exhausted and grabbed a quick nap before heading to dinner with the group and Sustainable Cambodia. We rang in the new year at midnight which is ahead of GMT by 8 hours and a full 12 hours ahead from back home in Kitchener-Waterloo. Today we have a rest day and then there are two back-to-back 90 km days as we make our way towards Phnom Penh.
Resolutions – I’m still working those out. Generally speaking, the resolution for 2009 still holds, be a better person, but I will be putting some other goals up here as they are refined.
As far as end of year reflections, a more detailed post will follow in time,
but for now, I think I can honestly say that 2009 has been the best year
yet, filled with adventure and fun. For those who helped make it
amazing and for those who shared in those special moments, thank you.
For those who I may have hurt or offended, please accept my apologies. For everyone, I wish peace, health, and happiness in 2010.
