Angkor Wat-Cambodia
A few pics of Angkor Wat Temple Complex, and a couple shots of the floating village. Hundreds of villages live on the water of Tonle Sap, a huge lake in Central Cambodia. The Mekong river backs up and floods the lake every year, so the water rises and falls about twenty feet. Chanda couldn't stand the poverty of the lake people, and insisted that we buy school supplies for the "floating" school. Of course the "floating" store completely ripped us off, but the kids got their books and pencils.

Chanda! Love the snake and the look on your face! And Jim 3 years from now you'll never care you got worked over by the merchant that sold you the school supplies but hopefully the kids will!
