Siem Reap day two - best told in pictures


Although the clouds covered the 5.30am sunrise, the light was amazing and breakfast at 6.30 afterwards was well received


Before entering Angkor Wat we had a photography session with a Cambodian family on holiday in Angkor


The bas reliefs of Angkor Wat - carvings of the past which astound us with their detail and beauty


Monks descend from the heights of Angkor Wat


The otherside of the great Angkor Wat


Lunch with our wonderful tuk tuk driver in the shadows of Angkor Thom


The faces of Bayon in Angkor Thom


Even in the midst of all the temples and ancient history, I manage to locate someone who would tell me the future!!


Preah Palilay - a temple oasis


The lovely four girls we met at Preah Palilay who kept us company for half an hour


Horror of all horrors I am caught kissing a snake on the walls of the Leper King Terrace


The best preserved elephant in Angkor at East Mebon - the last stop of the day
