Cambodia

We weren't quite sure how our bike batteries would hold, but we slid off (our bikes are silent) into the early hours and covered the almost 8 km to get back to Angkor Wat. On the way Janine started losing power and Johan just saw how we would end up pushing these bikes all around the ruins that day. He was not impressed - to say the least. The hassle was then to figure out what to do with flat batteries. We eventually found that we could change our batteries for fully charged ones at quite a few points along the way. You clip yours out and someone (sometimes even children) hand you a charged one - free of charge. Could not be easier! Janine was in her element and as the heat started pounding Johan could not have enjoyed it more as we cruised past all the other tourists furiously peddling and sweating their way from ruin to ruin.

Another fantastic discovery was the ruins of Preah Khan which also have the most beautiful strangler fig trees taking over, but with hardly any other visitors. This ruin was one of our favourites. We spent the rest of the day gliding around from one wat to another. There are so many incredible structures that you just pass by with a glance because there are so many others to get to. Janine aptly started calling these wats "so wats" and every time we passed one that we could just not afford the time or energy to check out, we just waved it off : "so wat!?"

We ate our last Red Piano dinner because tomorrow night our amazing buffet meal is going to be included…
