Angkor Wat 1



The next day we got up fairly early. The hotel had a great breakfast - I ate a lot of fresh pineapple and papaya along with an omelet with many vegetables inside. Yum. My idea had always been to bike to Angkor Wat because I had remembered how fun it was in Sukhothai. As it turned out, it was also free as our hotel had two bikes left for us to take. Angkor was about 2k away, and there don't seem to be any hills in Cambodia, so it was a nice ride. Lots of traffic of course, but the air seemed okay. It was expensive to get in (40$ us for 3 days) and unfortunately we were only going to be there for about a day and a half, but it was worth it. Quite a shame that we hadn't allowed more time, but that is a place I would like to go back to. Anyway, it was a hot day, but there are lots of trees on the road and in the shade it's not so bad. When we got there, of course lots of people came up and started to try to sell stuff. We locked the bikes up and headed in...
