Cambodia - Angkor Wat - Catching Up Part 6

The three months spent in Thailand have been fantastic but the time has come to move on. Next country: Cambodia. My mom, Dana and I said our goodbyes to my younger brother (who continued to India) early morning in Bangkok. We actually planned to stay a night over but Kaho San was too full and disgusting to stay over. Just read the captions if you're up for it then... :)
Kaho San may not offer fresh air, but the fresh Falafel at one of the Israeli places was pretty good.
Welcome to Cambodia, where draft beers cost $0.50USD each

Angkor temples are loaded with tourists. The modeling monkey is on the lookout for treats.

Not a village scenery. Boats in the moat surrounding the mighty temple of Angkor.



Early sunrise in Angkor. It's been some good years since the last visit to this amazing temple complex.

Click to see all the ants that Frognector sees.

Lotsa kids eek their livelihood from temple tourism. Not many are fortunate enough to meet Frognector though.

Thank air pollution for a beautiful sunset

Angkor is famous for trees growing out of deserted temples. Just search the web for better pictures if that's what you're up to.

But search as you will, you won't find Frognector anywhere else ;)
Dance for the frog, yo!

Trying to resume my long lost support of the haircutting industry, I spend a wandala (Cambodia's version of "one dollar") to shave some hair off my face and head.

Amok's one of Cambodia's best offers: some sort of coconut curry. My mom liked it :)



Sunset, lake, colors, Angkor

Siem Reap has become a circus since I've last visited some years ago. Now there's "fish massage" on almost every corner. This one was my first. Incredibly ticklish. When Dana said "just image a hundred little kitties licking your foot" it didn't really help it feel less ticklish.
