1st day in Siem Reap

Siem Reap is much quieter than the frantic capital city of Phnom Penh.  Less traffic, fewer motor bikes and a large town geared for tourism.
It was a short plane flight - just took off and the captain asked us to all be seated and prepare for landing!
Accommodation again very good.  It is a bungalow (suite) this time about 3 times larger than required, with an outdoor shower and small garden. 
A Tuk Tuk ride to the old market ($2) and some heavy bargaining resulted in a fun afternoon.

Friendly lady at the market who helped us find this VIetnamese sun/rain hat


Motor bikes lined up outside the Old Market


This is quite a glitzy tuk tuk 


After shopping - this is the salt water pool at our accommodation at Heritage Suites
