Day 6 - Siem Reap

Today we were both still feeling average after losing about 10kgs of water weight each last night. lol.

We didnt have much energy so we had extra sleep to recover. We then did a tour of Angkor Wat and the other temples in a tuk tuk. Angkor Wat was amazing and this was the main reason we decided to go to Cambodia. The workmanship was extremely impressive considering when they were built.

We also saw where some scenes from Tomb Raider were filmed.

There were a lot of people begging and trying to sell us things the whole day. Pepsi made some girls day when he bought 10 postcards off her for $1, she was so happy she got the sale.

The young kids can speak amazingly good english with a strong american accent. They tried to sell us bottles of water, soft drinks and Angkor Wat books. Pepsi also got called stingy by a 10yr old girl because he would only pay $1 for two cans of soft drink. I found this quite amusing she must know him well :P

We then went back to the hotel to get
