Gecko Capital

Is Phnom Penh the Gecko Capital of the World? If it isn’t, then it probably should be.  I have never seen so many geckos in one place, and so big. 

There was this one, at the regular size of 3 inches, on the outside of my bathroom. It lingered there for more than an hour.  This one was kind of cute.

One the wall of a restaurant, there were 10+ geckos jostling for space, including this one which had lost its tail.  I almost felt bad for the guy.  But it looked kind of ugly. 


Then there was this really ugly monster - a foot long, with sinister red spots.  At first I thought it was just a decoration.  But it was too ugly to be decoration.  One of my friends insisted that it was real.  Then the thing moved. 

When I asked one of the waitresses why she did not seem alarmed, she said she had gotten used to it because it came out every evening.   In fact, she actually had one at home bigger than this.
