Quiet but beautiful day exploring around Tonle Sap, the luscious countryside and stunning lakeside views!

Started the day with a tour by boat across to a nomadic, yet settled village. After a beautiful trip across an enormous lake we arrived at the village and boated up the main street. the whole village floats; houses, a school, even a basketball court!

After exploring the Bayon temple on foot, we got to go on an elephant ride a...

Surrounding it were awesome plants like in avatar, that shrunk back when you brushed bast them!
