Route Map 
Phnom Penh, Cambodia »
December 22, 2010
Today I went for a walk around town. Except for visiting the Wat Phnom and climb the hill above it, I had no particular plans where to go.
But first, a few shots of the streets.

Photo: Phnom Penh, Cambodia → Buddha statues.
Photo: Phnom Penh, Cambodia → One of the Buddhas. I don't why, but I enjoy photographing all the different Buddha statues. Is this why there are so many pf them, always, at the temples? Because they enjoyed making them?
Photo: Phnom Penh, Cambodia → A pot with oil lamps.
Photo: Phnom Penh, Cambodia → Leaving the Wat climbing down to the nearby park.
Photo: Phnom Penh, Cambodia → There are many mnkeys hanging around there. There are whole families of them, with babies.
Photo: Phnom Penh, Cambodia → There is a tree very close to the park and countless numbers of fruit bats living there. Incredible - why just this one tree?
Photo: Phnom Penh, Cambodia → Here they are. That's as close as I could have gotten to them.
My life has always been about freedom and I shall continue to walk this path.
Safe travels ! ........... Stan
