After a long dreary ride to Siem Reap we went to Angkor Wat, a beautiful temple that used to be a city a King lived in. It is gorgeous and if you go to the top of the temple you get to see a great view of Siem Reap and we were fortunate enough to see the sunset and sunrise. We also went to Angkor Thom, another jaw dropping temple that is made out of sandstone. All the intricate designs of things they worship are so detailed and astonishing to think it was built hundreds of years ago and it is still here looking prettier than ever.Another interesting fact was that there were stensils of dinosaurs in the rocks. It is mind puzzling to wonder how they knew about dinosaurs if they were extinct thousands of years before that. Still a top question scientist are trying to figure out. After this we went to our last temple, Thom Poot, or something that sounds like that not sure about spelling. It was amazing. It was also a movie set for Tomb Raider. Many of the temples were built with trees as there main support system. It is hard to describe so will have to show you all pictures but basically it is like a forest but with crazy vines everywhere. Also, these trees were abnormal size. Bigger than you can imagine it was just so pretty. Now here I am in the Korean Airport about to head to Seatle then home. Wish me a good and safe 10 hour flight! Can't wait to see all if not most of you.
Goodbye, 해ㅐ유ㅛㄷ
