APAD 057: National treasure
Driving along Norodom Boulevard near Wat Phnom I saw this old colonial house that was newly painted. It is beautiful and one of the few that are still found in the city. It houses the Ministry of Women’s Affairs, if I am not mistaken.
I think this is one of the few that has escaped the hands of businessmen who tear down old buildings to make way for ugly, commercial ones.
APAD 056: Mint tea
Forget about coffee. Try the soothing mint tea at Beirut Restaurant at the riverside. They serve authentic Lebanese and middle-eastern fare at a very reasonable price.
A cup of mint tea to warm me up on a chilly morning.

What else to do when stuck in traffic?
What else to do while stuck in a traffic? Why, sky-watching, of course!
This photo was taken along Monivong Boulevard last Sunday. It was between 10-11am, the sun was high and it was very hot. That probably caused a lot of people to be hot-tempered as well, lol.
APAD 054: Hobby
This is my second favourite area at the Post Office:
The Philately counter has a friendly and considerate staff.
The staff there knows me already as I regularly come see her to buy postcards and philately stuff. Also, she was nice enough to hand-stamp my postcards last December 12, when the main counter at the PO where you buy stamps refused to do so. You see, the 12-12-12 postmark is an auspicious one and many collectors the world over have been swapping for postcards and covers bearing this. It will never happen again in our lifetime so this is considered valuable.
Oh, and in case you are wondering what’s my most favourite area at the PO, it’s the hallway where all the post boxes are located, including mine 🙂
