Tuesday June 16th - Walking Tour of Siem Reap

We had a low key day today. We started off by enjoying the breakfast at our hotel, and then after packing our bags and lounging around we checked out at around 11. We hired a tuk-tuk and got dropped off on the north end of town, and walked back into town along the river, stopping at small shops and restaurants along the way. We enjoyed seeing the way that the local people lived and used the river. Part way back into town we passed the royal garden, and went in for a look...and that's when we relized that the trees were full of thousands of squawking fruit bats...those things are huge! I estimate 2 feet across easily. After our walking tour we caught a cab to the airport and headed for Hanoi.
