Hot and humid

It's 35 degrees and humid, and C has had heat exhaustion. After a day in bed and gallons of water and salts she's out of bed and feeling much better, but still tired and not speaking much.
It's the last few days before the rainy season is supposed to come and cool things down, at least in the evening when it can reach 90% humidity. But for now it's no more cycling around at noon, or clambering up temples. School is closed today as the kids are harvesting rice so we are staying in Siem Reap, close to the pool...
At the temples, the Kmers just ignore the heat, always selling and guiding with the same urgency. The foreigners stagger along in slo-mo with soaking t-shirts and plastic water bottles. Some tourists wrap scarves around their heads against the sun, others are followed about by air conditioned SUVs issuing chilled hand towels. We have opted for straw hats and bicycles, which are breezy until you stop moving. Up next - video of clambering around Ta Keo, a so-called "temple mountain" (the one they didn't finish after it was struck by lightning)
Happy St George's day
