    Same lady tuc-tuc driver as the other day. Doing the “the Big Circuit road”. Driver brought flowers and scarves for Lilly and Missy. First stop was at Preah Khan - a Buddhist temple - one of the largest complexes, a maze corridors and fine carvings on the stonework. Next stop was Ta Som, another Buddhist temple. Then a Hindu temple - Eastern Mebon, the brick shrines are dotted with neatly arranged holes, which attached the original plasterwork. The base of the temple is guarded at its corners by perfectly carved stone figures of elephants. We crossed a floating bridge to Neak Pean Temple, which was in the middle of an artificial island, another Buddhist temple on a circular island there was a walk way all around it.
    Got back in time for happy hour!
    Went out to the circus in the evening. Strange system bought $10 of tokens to spend on food and drink - exchanged the tokens for sweet and sour chicken, a beer and an ice cream! The circus was fun - acrobatics, dancing and stunts.
