Nope, from now on I'm soaking my chopping blocks in the Angkor Wat Moat

To preserve it at the exit of the biggest tourist location in town?
ok, perhaps that's the best spot, because of round the clock security to keep it safe from sticky fingers.

I was at The temple when they placed it in the water. The local guide with us was giddy with excitement about the story, as he was hearing it from the people who were moving the boat. But he nor I understood why it was being moved into the water in front of Angkor Wat.
