Adding another shot from Phnom Penh that just didn’t fit into one of my travel tales. All the blue is what originally caught my eye as I turned to look inward toward the city while walking along the quay. Local street-side vendors are usually good for a shot, so I got a double score. Then realized the scene was even better: These guys are the Phnom Penh version of a gas station. Not an unusual sight in this under developed country. The vendors fill old 1 liter glass bottles with gasoline, and then patiently wait for a passing tuk tuk or motorcycle running on fumes. Hours of waiting. And a few bucks in sales each day. The poses of these ‘gas station attendants’ pretty much tell the story.
