Day 95 Phnom Pehn

Took the chance to get some clothes washed, 5kg washed dried & folded for less than €4.
Past the airport(we will see that in the morning) on the outskirts of the city was a military training area where we could try some guns. As we arrived a few guys appeared and showed us to the range of weapons to try starting from small pistols, shot guns, the full AK range, sniper, machine guns, right up to a grenade launcher.
War was never cheap US$50 brought me 30 bullets for the AK47 I selected, the bigger bullet guns were US$150 for 30 bullets. After I shot a few off I intended to share with Rachel but the noise of it put her right off. I had a target and as the picture shows I did ok till I had a crack with automatic mode which blitzed the last of my bullets in a second.
Just in case your concerned this was properly supervised, yep the guy did stand next to me and load it and motion towards the trigger but no other instructions were given and it wasn't mounted, I could have shot anywhere.
