Siem Reap is the site of the ancient Khmer temple complex at Angkor Wat.....

....I was here for an two-day overnight visit nine years ago and it has become a major world tourist attraction during that period.  Jon and I had both visited the complex before so instead of hiring a guide, we just picked and visited selected temples.

The first day, we visited Angkor Wat itself--a huge moated complex as well as two outer temples.















We stayed at the race headquarters hotel which had a fantastic pool area for relaxing.



Cambodia was hot and humid as usual--think Houston weather in July and August.  We were into the trip for 14 days now and I think everybody was beginning to experience some element of fatigue.

The race expo was located at the hotel and we picked up our packets which included bags, scarves, tee-shirts, bib numbers and timing chips.

 Race Day is tomorrow.
