Siem Reap Day 3



 The next day after breakfast we went to Angkor National Museum.
 We spent about 2 hours here...but not many pics as cameras are not allowed inside the museum.
 Then we head off to Tonle Sap floating village.
the view...rupanya rumah-rumah ni berpindah tempat masa bergantung pada musim hujan atau panas.

other tourists passing by

at one of the stop point
view from top

the school for those who can't afford..operating on charity
the kids...we were told that not all donations goes to the kids/ school 
on the way back DH were given a chance to be the driver
our boat was operated by 2 young guys..one had a good english



on the way back we stop by a lotus farm
the boy thought us how to make the lotus  flower from looking like the top one to the one that he is holding.

we tasted the seed as well
back at the city we stop at Artisan's d Angkor workshop..this time it's painting and stone carving

not really my cup of tea
mostly Buddhas and elephants statue
then we stop by a few places looking for souvenirs but couldn't find what we really wanted..last2 ajak Salim pegi minum kopi kat tempat lepak dia...hihihi..order your kopi and just choose which tv stations you want to watch..;-)

Malam time we went to Old market and managed to get a few silk scarf that I saw in Artisan d Angkor but with a much lower price....;))

the next morning pagi2 went to airport for our morning flight home..
