Siem Reap - Cambodia


We caught a flight from Krabi to Kuala Lumpur and stayed in the same hotel as the last time we were here. With only one night in KL, we headed straight out to hunt for cameras, then had dinner in Jalon Alor; a famous hawker food market, which we frequented last time. Had a great meal and then headed back to our hotel for an early night, as we had to be up at 03.30am to catch our flight to Siem Reap - Cambodia.

Now..... Love them or loathe them (we love them!), we have booked ourselves in for 3 days of Temple exploring in Angkor.

These 1st pictures are of a Temple called "Bayon" The Temple Of Smiles, see if you can tell why?!. Over 900 years old, all carved in sandstone, lost and rediscovered in the 20th century.

Words cannot describe, so we'll let the pictures do the talking..........

All looks brilliant guys.

I'm very envious. Even though you were in Krabi off peak. I bet the temperature is still pretty warm. My car thermometer said 0*C this morning.

Keep Having Fun!
