Siem Reap, Cambodia 9-11 May

We met another lovely pommy couple (Dan and Beccy) who are doing the exact opposite of our trip! So we organised a trip together the next day to see the great Ankgor Wat. We are not big temple fans but these just blew our minds. It was an early start as we had to get there for sunrise and we are glad we did. The building are simply amazing, the size and the fine detailed work that has been carved out would have taken hundreds of years. We visited four of the main temples, each having their own amazing characteristics. We were really impressed with the Ta Prohm temple, where the movie Tomb Raider was shot. The trees are taking over the historic building. It was a long day as it took hrs to walk around each temple, but something very worth while. At the second temple, Dan had a slight accident-he split his shorts right through and was not wearing any underwear, which ended his day of looking at temples!!
