After visiting all the Wats in Thailand I wasn't expecting today to be much different. Good thing Suzy planned our adventures!! The temples we saw were amazing. We got up before sunrise and went to see Srah Srang. It was beautiful. The temple itself was sort of small, but the sunrise over the water was great to see. We also met a ton of the small children who lived right there. Unfortunately they didn't start school until 7am so we were stuck with them asking us to buy their stuff for over two hours. Coffee, books, bracelets, books, scarfs, books. haha. They get pretty angry with you when you decline, but how many books can we really purchase on this trip.
After that we went to Ta Prohm. Probably the most beautiful place yet. It was covered with huge trees that wrapped around the broken down temple. We jumped all over the place, bouldering up the crumbled sections only to realize we were in a completely different section that was just as massive as the one before. It was a maze of nature and temple. Anyone that is thinking about a trip over to this part of the world should definitely make it a point to stop by this temple!!!
We did a bunch of the smaller temples inside Angkor Thom... and then finished our day at the huge Angkor Wat temple. It was very beautiful, surrounded by a huge moat. It is pretty much an entire city within itself.
