Crossing Tonle Sap lake

Riding the tourist boat - and a bad one at that - across the surprisingly rough lake waters to Prek Toal.

Bigger trees

Thinly-spaced, but largeish trees on Tonle Sap lake

Cruising Tonle Sap slowly

Nice (but low res) video from the boat passing along the lake. This time is is slower, I am standing up up and the boat is not so noisy.

Flooded forest

Dense flooded forest at the edge of Tonle Sap Lake, as we are about to head out onto the lake towards Prek Toal on the other side.

Crossing the lake

Crossing the lake and heading towards Prek Toal. The waves were quite rough this tme of the morning. Some of the students were a little nervous.

We arrive at the floating school

Arriving at Prek Toal after winding our way through lots of floating vegetation. The village can only be seen at the end of the video.

Counting birds

Counting birds on the way back. The students do not know their birds, but the children do. So they shout out the birds seen and their names to the students, who frantically write them down.
