Another temple which drew large crowds was the women’s temple.\u00a0 It was small but some of the carvings were interesting.\u00a0 The large crowds were unexplainable for such a “typical” temple.<\/p>\n

Our tour guide came up with the “bright” idea that we should experience an ox cart ride.\u00a0 With temperatures of 100+, uncomfortable seating – it wasn’t such a great idea.\u00a0 I now know how the Mormons felt as they headed to Utah.<\/p>\n

The subsequent boat ride on Cambodia’s largest reservoir was quite a relief from the steamy ox cart ride.\u00a0 We motored to the floating villages\u00a0where the people are\u00a0very\u00a0dependent on fishing but they also raise pigs & chickens on floating pens.\u00a0 The village also had a floating school with a school boat to transport the village kids.<\/p>\n

At the end of the day, we visited Siem Reap’s hectic but charming old town filled with lots of restaurants and markets.<\/p>\n
