Rain, rain dont go away! by Padmaja

Water color on Paper sized 9" by 12 "

The Temples of Angkor Wat, Cambodia are surrounded by high and very dense jungle and many beautiful ponds, small creeks or rivers. We chose a rainy day to visit Siem Reap, a vibrant town that serves as a gate way to Angkor Wat. Due to the heavy rain, the ponds and lakes were over flowing. We were sort of uncomfortable to carry umbrellas and roam around in the pouring rain. But when we saw these little boys swimming in the lake and enjoying the rain, we threw our umbrellas and enjoyed the rain as well!
