Backtracking.....Siem Reap, Cambodia in photos

I feel as if I haven't posted enough pics....so screw the writing and here is a photo summary of Siem Reap, Cambodia....we sadly only had about a week to cover this great country and split our time between Siem Reap and Phnom Penh. I'll take you through both cities via photos....Phnom Penh to come next  :)

First full day in Siem Reap: We wandered around in the scorching heat, spent a few hours at the center that supports the Angkor Children's Hospital (there is a large potential I will volunteer here at some point in my future....this place is amazing), and then headed to Angkor Wat for sunset.

Full moon over Angkor Wat....if you show up for sunset, your ticket is valid for the next day so we were able to spend a day and a half at the temples for the price of one day :)

Dinner at Green Curry: Pretty excited about green curry and a blue margarita

While checking out the local markets is entertaining, you can only see so many markets. I think my favorite so far has been the actual local market (Phosy) is Luang Prabang....where there were no other white people.  It seems that any destination sans tourists ends up being my favorite....

The tuk tuk bar.....the owner just opened it a few days before we got there and the first night we were there, there was only 3 customers and by the 3rd night of hanging there, he had about 20...we were so proud of him!!! Katy and some new French friends are in the righthand corner

 SECOND FULL DAY: ANGKOR WAT

 We went with a tour guide for our day at the temples since we only had one day and wanted to understand what we were seeing. He had a lot of great information to offer but was a little hard to understand at times......this was an amazing but exhausting day- it was about 38/39 that day....a scorching 100 degrees.
