cambodia, tuol sleng the killing fields and of course a rocket launcher

Thursday 18th March
Jumped on the bus to see a prison museum called “Tuol Sleng”. It was an old high school that was converted to an interrogation camp in ‘75 after Pol Pot took over. It was just sick what this fascist prick did to his country. The guy deserved to die a most truly brutal death. Its a shame that the UN didnt come to the party earlier and bring to trial those of the khmers that inflicted such horrific genocide. we walked around looking in all the rooms, you could still see the stains of blood splattering on the walls and ceilings. absolutely aborrhent, made me feel sick to my stomach. There seems to be a bit of a different vibe here in cambodia. The people seem a bit uptight and odd. fair enough i say, considering that they have been in civil war for the last 40 or so years. It seems a bit uneasy here comapred to vietnam, like everything is on edge. Hopefully angkor tomorrow will be a bit different. After the prison we moved on to the killing fields, a much nicer place (sarcasm)with over 8 thousand skulls stacked in a massive temple serving as a toswering tribute to those who were bludgeoned to death, inluding whacking babies against trees and then throwing them into pits. Truly sick people that did such barberous things to any other human being. Walking around you can see clothing burried in the ground, along with the debris of bones. I spotted some teeth and part of a jaw bone protruding from the ground. GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!!! hopefully lessons like this will never be repeated, sick individuals with crazy ideas of utopia casually deciding to kill thousands if not millions of his own countrymen. what a wanker. It was time for a break and some new thongs. we went to the russian market and i picked up their biggest size which is probably a few sizes too small :( what to do after this??? how about taking out the rocket launcher for a session?? GREAT IDEA. never having shot a gun in my life i thought this might be the perfect opportunity to try it. so we headed out for an adventure. first i started off with a pistol. freaked me out a bit, but definately worth a try, although i cant aim to save my life. Mental note… dont join the army youd be dead in 2 seconds :P after this i moved up to the AK 47.. not a bad gun. time to try an M16?? Hell yeah why not?? pretty god damn powerful and loud, pushed me back a bit and i started to swing my aim, not good when there are people standing next to you… ooops sorry for killing you mate, wasnt used to the gun :P whats next eh?? how about a russian M57 machine gun?? OK ill give it a go :) 35 rounds of ammo… this thing was insane. apparently it has tracker bullets for those of you who might now what the hell that means?? blasted the shit out of the target. id say all in all if you had been standing in front of this thing you wouldnt retain liquid very well as you would be riddled with holes :P after the shooting range it was time for some gokart action. Nice little 1k outdoor track, im not much of a driver though. i got some tips after i lost the race, schumaker mate watch out… afterwards we stopped outside the royal palace to watch the sun set behind it. back to the hotel for a burger for dinner, then some pool before fiding myself in front of the pc checking my emails and writing this diary. NO ONE LOVES ME… cmon people where are the emails?? its just bills and crap, are you all secretly glad that ive left and never want me to return??? perhaps australia needs its own dictatorial fascist??? hehehehehe just kidding.
