This is more like it...

Back from Siem Reap. A quick trip, but a good one.



Damn Germans and their restoration project in partnership with the Cambodian government ruined my brilliant shot of Angkor Wat from a distance with their green tarp.




Phnom Bakheng, a hilltop temple near Angkor Wat, is a VERY popular place to watch the sunset. Hundreds of tourists swarm the place to watch the sun go down over the Tonle Sap lake and to look at Angkor Wat (previous photo), and this guy was there too.



At the Bayon, another very famous site in the Angkor complex. Yes, the one with the faces. A 40 minute rainshower had just ended, which chased away alot of tourists, which meant that I was able to enjoy the Bayon without a lot of other people around.
