Riding Elephants and the Tomb Raider

We visited 2 additional temple complexes, Bayon and Ta Prohm.  The visit to Bayon was accomplished via elephant, circumnavigating the complex.  The most fun was getting to feed the elephant a (whole) pineapple at the end of the ride.

Pineapple as a thank you for an interesting ride



Ta Prohm was the site for filming Angelina Jolie and the Tomb Raider movie.  There was still great fascination with her from the people of Siam Reap, especially because her first adopted son is from Cambodia.


Ta Prohm - overgrown and evocative.
