I am knackered...

More monkey business, this time at the new pagoda being built at Wat Khpop
Sunday was hectic, hence no blog posts. I was both still knackered from my cycle outing the day before and of course I was back on the road again, visiting a series of pagodas and villages 30kms west of Phnom Penh and south of Ang Snoul. Usual sort of thing, scrabbling around the grounds of pagodas looking for evidence of ancient temples, seeking out interesting Neak Ta shrines, taking tea with the head monk, chatting to the local villagers, and walking across parched rice fields, seeking out ancient prasats that have been reduced to mere rubble amongst the thorn bushes. Doesn't everyone do that on a Sunday? By the time I got home, I had just enough time to have a bite to eat before falling into my bed exhausted. I'll fill you in on the details later. I'm having problems again in posting some photos so will post a few from yesterday's trip as soon as I can.
