Day 5 - Wonderful Last Day in Siem Reap

This day started really early, we were both awake before 6 am. I guess we were rested enough from our sick time the previous day. We didn't even eat breakfast, because we didn't want to take the chance that it could spoil the rest of our day. We hired a tuk tuk just outside the hotel and headed for the farther parts of Angkor Park. There was hardly anybody out there, well at least at first. We visited couple of small temples followed by Ta Prohm. Ta Prohm is the temple seen in The Tomb Raider movie. This temple complex is only partially cleared of jungle overgrowth in order to present some 'tree-in-temple' photo opportunities. It was pretty cool, but unfortunately there were many tourists at this point.
From there we visited Banteay Kdei and Sras Srang, which were nice but nothing exceptional. The farthest part of our visit was Neak Pean and Preah Khan and they were definitely worth the visit. One was a group of pools with a sort of a fountain in the middle that were believed to have healing powers and the other was a very serene complex, without any tourists and it still had many 'tree-in-temples' left, which were great to see.
At this point it was nearing one pm and we were both 'templed' out so we headed back to town. We found a nice bakery and filled up on bread as that was one safe thing we thought we could eat.
Once again we found ourselves spending the afternoon by the pool before heading to the town for dinner and some shopping. We thought it would be waste not to have Khmer food on our last day in Cambodia so we tossed the dice and ate a real meal and it was worth it! Now we just have to figure out how to make it at home.
