It's my second time visiting Angkor, so I'm not as overly excited as the first time here. In addition, things have changed CONSIDERABLY in the 15 months since I've been here last. Many more tour buses and the area for buying the day passes has moved and changed completely. The price for a day pass is still $20 as it was the last time, but our guide tells us that this will rise to $37 in the very near future.

And yes, these pictures might look nice and relaxed and peaceful.
The following might give you an idea how much work it was to get those shots !
Here is another peaceful picture.
The following pictures might give you an indication of how BUSY this place is. NO, I was trying NOT to hit the release button when there was a person in the picture. But there ALWAYS was someone before I finally got the above picture. I was getting close to fuming at the mouth waiting for the archway to be clear because somehow almost every passer by had to STOP right in the middle of the shot !
