Invited last minute, by someone who didn't even know the bride and groom. With only 20 minutes to get ready, we threw on whatever we could put together (we don't really have wedding-appropriate clothing with us). And then waited around for an HOUR for our ride to show up. That's Cambodia for you... no sense of time (which is sweet, just hard to get used to coming from a place where life is dictated by the ticking of a clock) ...We showed up and EVERYONE ... no lie... EVERYONE stared at us. We were not only foreigners at a wedding reception, which is apparently uncommon, we were also completely and utterly underdressed. All of the women wore shiny ballgown dresses with rhinestones, and frills, and their hair was done perfectly in ringlets and loads of hairspray. Ah, it's was probably the most random night of my life. They served us an 8 course meal, too.. it was awesome! Dana got real sick all of a sudden, so we left. She threw up beside the tok tok. It was such a wierd night. One I couldn't possibly forget!!
Janna...you live an exciting life......a cambodian wedding! what an oppotunity. Was it very colourful?
