Da teilweise mehr Leute pro Tag ankamen, als getötet werden konnten, wurden die Leute temporär in einem „Warteraum“ eingesperrt. Damit die auf ihren Tod wartenden Leute die Schreie der Sterbenden nicht hören konnten, wurde die Anlage mit Musik beschallt.

 

This tree was called the Magic Tree. The staff that ‘worked’ here hung music players from the branches to drown out the noise of the murders. They blasted revolutionary songs to celebrate the Khmer Rouge and new Cambodia… as they murdered the innocent.

On the site of the Cheong Ek “killing fi elds” outside Phnom Penh, a large tree

stands. During the Khmer Rouge regime large speakers were attached to that tree

over which loud music was played during the executions in order to mask the sounds

of the nocturnal mass murders, including the screams and moans of the dying

victims. It was called the “Magic Tree.”

Tree shapes and shadows in the woods at Meldon.

When we started this big adventure I’d read that the North Island was the subtropical one, and the South was more temperate. So I’d imagined the palm tree magic might be over by the time we got here. But no so! What a lush place for an elevensies snack bar wouldn’t you agree? I just had to pop my socks off and have a wade about in the cool waters. I saw a fish!… But it was only 5cms or so long. Not much meat on that for tea ;) We were joined again by our intelligent bird brained friends the Wekas. Once again coming to check us out and see if we had any tea spoons or shiny watches worth nicking. This poor fella only had one eye, but that didn’t slow him down. In fact I started to wonder if it was just a marketing ploy to make you feel sorry for him and put you off guard ;) You know these fellas can out-run rabbits and rip guinea pigs apart at the seams? Our Weka expert back at Owlcatraz said they hunt very much like the Velocoraptor’s in Jurassic Park… But I think he’s kinda charming… for an Evil Chicken

We called it the secret garden after we found it behind a cafe in Takapuna on the North Shore in Auckland. Dining under a huge plum tree. Magic!

Curiously, we never found it again.

That was in 2009.

Just recently I got a discount voucher offer for a Swiss cafe featuring a tree in its courtyard.

I was sure it was 'our tree'.

And yes, it was.

The grounds had been levelled, tiled court, more chairs and tables but it didn't have that secret garden feel anymore

 

Wat Chotynieng, Sihanoukville Mountain, Sihanoukville, Cambodia.

 

Snaps and I went in search of the sunset over the city and instead found this, an incredible location to shoot monks in training, kids in the fire and monkeys in the trees.

 

Magic stuff and the type of experience that makes all the travel, all the bumpy hours in the back of ramshackle buses and the mud butt more than worth it.

Um Munition zu sparen, wurden die Todgeweihten in diesem Exekutionszentrum nicht erschossen, sondern mit Eisenstangen, Äxten oder ähnlichem erschlagen. Kinder wurden gegen Bäume geschlagen, bis sie tot waren. Die Toten wurden in Massengräbern verscharrt, die auch heute noch deutlich sichtbar auf dem Gelände vorhanden sind.

 

The executed were buried in mass graves. In order to save ammunition, the executions were often carried out using poison, spades or sharpened bamboo sticks. In some cases the children and infants of adult victims were killed by having their heads bashed against the trunks of Chankiri trees. The rationale was "to stop them growing up and taking revenge for their parents' deaths.
