Sand and Gravel

The ship seemed to be docked in the middle of two large gravel companies at Tonle Bet. Everyday, trucks would come and be loaded with gravel or sand from the boats. The gravel would be loaded by a backhoe into trucks. But the sand would be shoveled into a railcar that would haul it up the hill and be dumped. The picture is a bit shady but you can see the railcar going up. I caught these young boys gathering their own box of sand that they had loaded onto the back of a bicycle. I think they were distracted by the heat and decided to take a swim. They seemed to have more fun climbing up and jumping off the side over and over and over! gail
