So plan for today was to go and check out some of the temples around the area, We headed out around Two for our temple tour about $25 for our tuk tuk for a day to take us around then another $20 for the ticket which would let us see them all. So payed all that so our first stop was the Big temple in Angkor Wat, So started walking up to the temple across the bridge and this friendly guy comes up and starts telling us about the temple we both knew he was after some cash, Get to the entrance of the temple then says I live and study in the temple and could take us around telling us the story's for a minimum fee... Both said no thanks mate just want to take a look around, So made our way in, Such a view one of the top ten places to see in the world.
By this time the suns getting pretty hot been walking around for a long time get almost to the top of the temple, Get turned away because we're both wearing tank tops, So we walked off but I really wanted to see the top and we both had packed our rain coat so went back and they let us up. We made it a quick look but could not stand the heat with our coats on, Rushed back down and ripped them off!
Then sat down for Ten minutes, Then began our way to the exit, Went round the right side to avoid people Man did that have the opposite effect! Got swarmed by people trying to sell us crap, One of them was trying to Hurd me into her stall Quickly got out of there, Then back to our driver for the next temple.
Next was all the smaller temples which were all still pretty big, Where they have all the praying statues there's always a old lady with incense trying to push it into your hands for a donation! After a lot of walking around stopped for lunch then some more smaller temples, One we had to walk from one side to another to get back to our driver. Got dropped back around half four five jumped straight in the pool to cool.
After getting change came back out into reception for some ice cold beers and hang out with the Austrian/Cambodia lot, Grabbed another crate from the shop and watched the football and get pretty drunk.
