A highlight of any trip to Cambodia is a visit to the famous Angkor Wat. There are over 1,000 temples in the Angkor complex and we visited the best-preserved of these which is Angkor Wat.

You can climb to the top of the temple for a panoramic view of the area, if you are prepared to stand in the queue for an hour. We unfortunately didn't have the time.

In this part of the world, kids learn very early in life that they need to use whatever talent they have to earn some money.

The two young boys very quickly got into the act of providing massages to passengers on the riverboat that they father drove. The next young boy asked for $1 for a picture of him and his snake. The two young girls would sing whenever any tourist approached. $1 is the magic amount that they think that tourists would happily pay.

The Freshwater Fish Exhibition Restaurant is one of the restaurants on Tonle Sap Lake.

One of the exhibits of this floating restaurant is its crocodile farm. The crocodiles are reared for their hide and meat. We were assured that none had escaped into the lake.
Crocodile meat anyone?

This morning's cruise on the Tonle Sap lake took us to the famous floating villages of Cambodia where we observed life on the waterways. The floating villages include schools, a church, supplies stores, medical clinic, markets, etc.

Tonle Sap is the largest fresh water lake in South East Asia and it provides more than half of the fish consumed in the country. The lake is also the water supply for the villagers who use the water for their washing and cleaning.
