Our last day at Angkor! By this point we were a bit 'templed-out'... so we only went out for the morning and then came back in time for the Hotel's free buffet breakfast ;)
We went back to Ta Prohm for the sunrise again, seeing as the first time, the batteries ran out on Steve's good camera and we had to settle for my 'point&shoot' camera which really is nothing compared to the quality of the photos from the other camera. Getting there before sunrise was still very eerie, despite having done it before!
Afterwards, we decided to end our temple-exploring with Angkor Wat. We got our tuk-tuk driver to drop us off around the back of the temple instead, as it's impossible to get a good shot with the hundreds of tourists and the renovation scaffolding covering the front. It was a lot nicer visit this time; the temperature was cooler and there were less crowds. We witnessed a very strange group of people... one of which decided to take her skirt off and walk around in her undies, impersonating the monkies... which was a bit odd (this is a 20-something woman I'm talking about, not a child!). Somewhat entertaining, although very innapropriate considering we were in a temple. Good thing the monks didn't see her.
Last night in Siem Reap tonight, heading to Stung Treng tomorrow!
