Today we have hired a tour bus to take us to see the temples. First we have to purchase or tickets. Unfortunately it is Cambodian new year and most of Siem reap are on the roads or at the temples. The President of Cambodia is coming today so we are unable to see Angkor Thom. We chose to visit Ta Prohm and then Angkor Wat. The weather is very hot today as well so we were happy to finish at lunch time. the kids got to see some long tailed macque near the temples so they were happy.
After a refreshing swim we prepared for a short trip to Tonle sap lake. On the way we stopped at a water lily farm. When we got to the lake we could see that the water level was very low. On the way the boat got stuck a few times on the bottom and at one stage the driver had to get out to push it free. Unfortunately the cloud cover meant we couldn't see any sunset. The kids were happy to see the crocodile held on the boat. All a bit of a tourist trap.
