After seeing the temples of Angkor Wat on Discovery channel a few years ago I decided that this was definitely one place I had to visit. Understandably it was with great excitement that we awoke on our first day in Cambodia to explore these man made marvels. Our driver was at the hotel to meet us at 8:30am and we were off for a big day of temple exploration. We spent a very busy day exploring and the kids were stuffed by about 2pm, so we headed back to the hotel so they could have a swim and a rest – after all, we had 2 more days to revel in our ancient surrounds. We spent the next day visiting a floating village (another blog post coming soon) before returning to the temples to do some more exploring.This was a truly awesome experience and one that I will never forget.
