Excursion to Oknha Tey (link, lien, enlace)

Our last day on the Tonle Sap river, before arriving to Phnom Penh.  In the morning we visited the Oknha Tey Island, well known for its Silk Farm,  silk is still made the traditional way, by hand. Before the farm we visited a local School. We were welcome by teachers and children, they sang several songs, some in English. We arrived to the capital in the afternoon. During the evening, local Dance School students came on board, to perform Cambodian dances. Many represent heros from the Ramayana Hindu poem, demons, gods, goddesses, but also traditional country dances to celebrate harvest or fishing.
