Weiter geht es.
Leider hatten wir in Kambodscha so schlechte Internetverbindungen, das man kaum etwas schreiben konnte. Wir sind bereits in Vietnam, in Mui Ne, und hier ist die Verbindung deutlich besser. Mittlereweile hat sich mit Petra Weber-Pieckenhagen auch eine Lektorin found the corrected my lyrics. Thank you.
But first in order. As planned, I'm
morning left for our arrival with the driver for me to see the sunrise over Angkor Wat. Almost it would have gone wrong, because my alarm clock has stopped at 4:00, but the security guard at our Guest House I was woken up at twenty to five. As always, Angkor is an experience, even if the visitor numbers have nearly doubled since our last visit 2 years ago and should have the place all over new hotels and construction sites.
Even at dawn were already about 500 people on the go. Directly after that I have
me in my favorite temple, the Bayon, let go and sent the driver to the hotel the other to pick up. Very handy to have a driver from sunrise to sunset, and in particular to recover in between the air-conditioned car from the murderous temperatures. At 9:00
come to Ralf, and Anja Silke and look briefly at the temple. I am so impressed again by the Bayon, I have decided that we may be here some day my ashes scattered. Until then, the tourists at Angkor are likely to connect to each other dead, but that can only be beneficial, since my ashes will then be incorporated thoroughly into the ground. Next, a short trip to Ta Kheo temple, it is the steepest temple here and the only one who is not decorated as it ungewoehnlicherweise of granite and nicht aus Sandstein, gebaut ist. Ralf und ich sind fix und fertig als wir in der Hitze den etwa 100 Meter hohen Tempel bestiegen haben, und das obwohl es erst 10:00 Uhr ist. Zur Abkuehlung lassen wir uns in den Dschungel Tempel, Ta Phrom fahren, der etwas Schatten verspricht. Ta Phrom ist mit Jahrhundertealten Baumbestaenden ueberwachsen, riesige Wuergefeigen und Banjanbaeume halten die Gemaeuer zusammen, und umschlingen sie mit mannsdicken Wurzeln.
Zur Zeit gibt es an diesem Tempel umfangreiche Restaurierungsarbeiten die uns manchmal den Zugang verwehren. Ich hoffe nicht das man diese Arbeiten nutzt um den Tempel von seinem fantastischen Baumbestand zu befreien, wie man es bei allen anderen Tempeln in der Region bereits gemacht hat. Es wuerde dieser Anlage ihren ganzen Charming take and destroy some unique views.
In 2000, however, is another temple found was said to be overgrown similar as Ta Prohm, it is called Ban Meattey, or something similar, is located about 70 KM from Angkor removed and in 2003, after the purge of the ubiquitous landmines, for the Tourism released. This facility extends to over a square kilometer, we have set for tomorrow in his programs.
After 3 hours in the shadow of Ta Prohm, we have to eat something first and head for the next snack bar. Unfortunately, bringing the sharp food and cool drinks no real slowdown, while others have seen enough and I'm exhausted so after 7 hours in the blazing heat, we at 14:00 decide at the hotel to make siesta. We order the driver for 16:30 clock back on around us and the sunset over Angkor Wat to see.
who go there once here, the sunset is actually far more spectacular, like the sunrise, when the sun goes down directly opposite the facility and the temple complex is immersed in a wonderful light. We enjoy the sight of shimmering golden temple and climb briefly before dark to the highest point of the system. Of course, sitting here, hundreds of people on the steep steps to enjoy the prospect of an anti-mosquito fog draws fire at the plant and slowly the sun is sinking behind the horizon.
Now begins the fun part in Angkor Wat, for all the culture pensioners unsportsmanlike and Japanese women have to back down the steep steps. Sorry, but only one of the 4 outlets a temporary railing and each stage is at least 60 cm high.
I'm quite afraid of heights, I can climb despite camera and tripod in the queue over time, and am down to see me down the spectacle. Ralf and Silke are still standing up, rather far back in the queue of those waiting, Anja is the knowledge of their abilities do not even gone up and we smirk about the different styles of descent that but roughly in Japanese, French and Young not differ Dynamic . let
Japanese is set to time-consuming, as there is on each level, always keep one hand on the railing, the thus in head height, and offers little support. This uncertainty puts a foot down gently to the stage and felt the next step. Now raise only the bottom, tighten the second walk and sit the next stages of the nearly one hundred.
French style is a bit fast, because the French have long legs like the Japanese. This one has to sit down, but holding on with both hands on your abdomen or chest height on the railing, one foot takes the stage, lies down far back, so you can keep balance only thanks to the hands on the railing, is with the second foot in his knees and felt by the free foot, the next step. Now only the upper body tilt forward to get back into balance to come, advance the first arm on the handrail and tighten the second leg, tighten second arm on the railing and already is a step made it. The French style
is essential to let it be photographed standing upright on the last stage. In order to impede the traffic behind even more.
Young but not dynamic is similar to the French style, but upright and you bravely takes on the railing at the hands sliding along the railing that is not continuous. The higher speed and better balance helps one not there always 30-40 people at a time abseiling and pretends at least one French or Japanese the pace.
were finally progresses, darkness and Ralf and Silke's turn, said Ralf athletic dancing down the stairs and Silke, Japanese style, pushed in front of them.
a beautiful day, although I had to do without the helicopter, I had lunch at the limit of my powers and urgently needed some sleep. Evening or a delicious meal in the restaurant Bopha Khmer-style hotel, highly recommended lifted, kitchen, and then off you go to bed because we had ordered the next morning at 5:00 clock driver at the sunrise at the temple Bantaey Srei be. This time
are also Anja, Silke and Ralf here. At dawn, we arrive and have half an hour until the sun rises over the trees. After 15 minutes I open even the temple while I put away the No Entry sign and we sneak into the plant. This temple has the best stone work of all the temples I have ever seen here. The bas-reliefs and decorative elements have unusually deep undercuts and have survived very well. Ralf is still tired and lies down again to sleep in the car, the girls are hungry and rush to the first feeding shack that opens, and since the light is slowly getting better I'd start first photograph. After an hour I sit down with the girls, eat a banana pancake and then it goes back towards Siem Reap. I tell the driver that he should stop the others at the hotel because they are tired and I want then to 70 KM away, newly discovered jungle temples. Then he bit her face disfiguration, I offer him an extra payment for the additional fuel, as it is much closer here to the jungle temple, and he only has to settle Anja, Silke and Ralf. Then answer me the driver that has to be the tour to 40 KM away Bantaey Srei temple paid extra and he will tell us that would have been earlier. I ask him what they cost tour and the 70 KM tour and he says that this will cost $ 20 extra and the other is much more expensive still. Ralf told him the address can not he something about it after the tour would like to have to have extra, but he said that would have previously. The driver turns stubborn. I tell him that we would have an agreement stating that we him for 25 dollars from morning to night have a driver, und das es dabei nie um eine Kilometerbegrenzung gegangen sei. Alles Reden nutzt nicht, er besteht darauf das diese Tour 20 Dollar kostet und der Tagessatz zusaetzlich 25 Dollar ist. Da wir uns nicht einig werden, lassen wir uns erst einmal zum Hotel fahren. Ich bin jetzt der einzige bin der noch Lust auf Tempel hat, aber weil ich auch darauf verzichten kann, schliesslich werde ich ja hier beerdigt, schlage ich vor das wir dem Fahrer fuer gestern 25 Dollar und fuer die heutige Tour 20 Dollar geben und er damit gefeuert ist. Wir sind uns einig das das ein fairer, realistischer Vorschlag ist und da ich zu leicht auf brause besteht Anja darauf das Ralf ihm bei Ankunft im Hotel den Vorschlag unterbreitet.
Gesagt getan, wir kommen an und Ralf sagt das wir Ihm bisher 25 Dollar for the day and $ 20 for debts the tour, so he now gets $ 45. The driver agrees and asks when to pick us up again. We explain to him that he will not pick up again and there must be clear to him that the 45 dollar not for today but for yesterday and today. He starts a huge debate, he said yesterday already 3 times had to drive to the hotel and it was not normal and we have to Him for today still pay $ 25 in addition ....
We decide, discuss it with him at the Guest House, we have posted. Also in the discussion, we will not make the driver lose completely the control, is loud and insulting us.
Finally comes the Englishman of the Guest House operates. He first asked his staff what was going on and then comes to us and asks if he can help us. First, I tell him that the driver now has become so abusive that the issue had been settled and we had the feeling that he would like to take us over the table, since I was here two years ago and then all tours within the price were included. If he would like something extra charge, he should inform his customers about it, we would have an agreement in which only the time was the limiting factor, but not the number of trips or distance. I remain calm and objective, he understands our position and said it was OK as we would have paid him. He still offers an alternate driver, but to us is the Lust passed and we go into town and have breakfast once extensively from 10:00 to 11:00 before we stroll through the market. Somehow it messed up the day for me at least, and has after Silke, our oracle, prophesies from the entrails of a chicken on the market a good remainder of the trip we book our boat tickets to Phnom Penh for the next day and a nap, make the greatest heat to escape. The rest of the day passes uneventfully, and after dinner we pack for the drive to Phnom Penh.
