Jan. 30-31, SIEM REAP
We explored the Eighth Wonder of the World, Angkor Wat, at sunset.
A guard basically asked us to bribe him for access to the highest part of the temple. He worked hard for the $6, racing from spot to spot taking iconic pictures for us. Here's one:
The next day, we borrowed a pair of truly antiquated bikes from our hotel that we rode through the site. Mine made an alarming rattling noise but made it through the day!
The Bayon temple has over 200 sculptures of giant faces built into the architecture.
Ta Prohm is where Tombraider was shot, known for its immense trees. We had two Angelina Jolie sightings. For some reason she wanted to borrow our clothes for the pictures. Clever girl.
