  OK, back to Cambodia for a minute.  Not sure if this has been identified already, but found this pix of a Bayon Temple gate that looks very close to Matt's gate.  The 2004 pix appears to be a view of the gate from the opposite side (outside).

Note the "collapsed" stone in the opening above the passage.  OK, the 2004 pix has some vegetation, and the opening allows visitors to pass thru, while in Matt's 2008 photo the gate is fenced off, and no vegetation.  Things change in 4 years, maybe.  Too bad we can't see the other side.   ;)   Close enough, huh?   :angel:

Nice Boingo!  Just don't stand under it!  :ascared  I think that is the face they have to find for sure!

Maps of both Bayon and Ta-Prohm are in the Cambodia MAPS! HERE

Yes it was the 13th. the first of three teams came in around noon-2ish. i don't really remember exactly, just that it was very early. It had rained all morning and the sun came out around noon.

 :lol:  That's a really interesting new picture, puddin.  Looks like there's a camera crew waiting in the wings, lots of visitors to the exhibition walking around, and a couple of security guards/police giving Phil and the Russian war hero the "once over". This is one busy location.   :funny:

What is that white/grey square that the crews are holding? Is it supposed to help with the light angle for the cameras?

In the TV business, that's called a reflector, to help add light for the cameras. It's used to help illuminate the subject, in this case, The Man!  :tup:

Note how soundman and reflector guys jump into action when the racers arrive.   Cameraman appears out of nowhere, and there's an extra soundman lurking by the boats.   :lol:

Maybe it's just me, but it looks like the couple is having a celebratory kiss at the mat in the second pic.
