Angkor Wat

It has been a long couple of days. After reaching LA, I met up with my group and  flew to Hong Kong. After Hong Kong, we flew to Phenom-Pen and then took a 6 hour bus ride to Siem Reap. O_________O long time traveling.

After all of that traveling, I literally reached the hotel and passed out. I was so exhausted! The next day, we headed out to Angkor Wat. I would upload photos, but the computer is giving me a hard time. Hopefully tomorrow it will be easier! The major temples we visited were Ta Prohm, Angkor Wat, and Bayon temple.  I never realized how old the temples were. Nearly 900 years old, and they were still amazingly beautiful.  Everything represented a greater meaning; worthy of carving it into stone. :D

Anyway, we also had super good lunch. I think Justine wins the meal of the day with her lunch pick Khmer Amok. It was a coconut based soup, and even came inside a coconut! It was amazing!
