Angkor Wat

Nice hotel with a.c. and a pool to come back to after each temple outing, check. Two mountain bikes hired, check. New headtorches, check. Week passes purchased, check. Let's go.

With so many photos taken below is just some of my favourites.

 And again the forest pushes the temple aside

 The smell of incense was everywhere with offerings being made throughout the complex

So there it was probably my most anticipated bit of the trip, 3 days of early starts and late finishes and lots of photos for our trouble. It truly was an amazing place and worth cashing in every one of my temple visiting chips with Louise
