Day 53 Guess Wat?

26/04/13
Yep more cycling and temple visiting. A bright and early start at 6 followed by a 20+km ride, visiting 2 wats on the way before breakfast. I then proceeded to cycle around for over an hour searching for the road that would take me to a collection of minore, less visited temples 10-15km away. I didn't find the way and wasn't up for the massive detour to get to them so I went back to Siem Reap for lunch. In the afternoon I cycled out of town again to another wat, built around the same time as Angkor Wat but it sees very little attention from tourists because it is off the beaten track. I also got a massage from a blind man, it was literally as if his hands had eyes it was brilliant, he spent an hour massaging m and I could easily have stayed longer. Again I met with Vanessa for dinner, I have to say that she isn't very good at conversations, I would ask her a question and she would reply but she never turns the question around on me, therefore ending the conversation and either leaving a silence or forcing me to think up of another conversation starter, seeing as this was another skill she lacks. I am not sure I can cope with another night. The only rest I got was when a storm started and I read a book to pass the time!
