It is in an area of Cambodia where there is an important group of ancient structures. It is the southernmost of Angkor’s main sites. The initial design and construction of the temple took place in the first half of the 12th century. A magical place to visit and should be added to the “Wonders of the World.”

It was special working with the students at the primary school. I hope someday they will be able to see these images that I captured of them.

You wouldn’t really think primary students would be playing poker and betting ten cents. Which can buy you a piece of gum. I was the financial backer for a few that were promising.

I have not seen the old man for about one month now. I usually hear him talking to himself while he is drinking his rum at night. Where ever you are old man, I hope your safe.
