Tonle Sap

Today we went to visit Tonle Sap just south of Siem Reap. It is the biggest lake in south east asia, with a surface area of around 2,500km2 in the dry season, and over 16,oookm2 in wet season. It is currently the dry season so we did not witness it in all its glory. However it was still amazing as we went to see the floating villages. Wich are made up of houses, shops and even a church built onto make shift barges. Strangely the water does not get above a metre in depth, this time of year, yet stretches as far as you can see!

 Tomorrow we have an early start as we are heading to Angkor Wat to see the sunrise! Lets just hope its not cloudy!
