I was out today so I’m late in posting this. I took the tuk-tuk (local motorised rickshaw) to go home. It was nearly 5pm, the sun was low. As its rays hit the trees that lined Monivong Boulevard, it made the leaves look golden yellow.

The traffic was moderate, but still very chaotic. We were following this vehicle with lots of cargo. I noticed the yellow string right away contrasting sharply against the black plastic packaging.

This is the view that I’m longing to see… again.
The calm waters of the Gulf of Thailand, with the mountains of Bokor in Kampot province as background.

One of the signs at the south entrance of Koh Pich (Diamond Island) in Phnom Penh. The island is slowly recovering from what happened last year.

More signs all over the world at Signs, Signs. Please do have a look.

One of the few photos I took last month.

If you’d look closer, you’ll see a tiny white dot that is the moon.

APAD 209: Orchids in the city

Beautiful orchids, aren’t they?
They adorn the garden of the newly-opened spa in the same street where my little bro lives.

If I’m not mistaken, there was another business establishment in the same spot where the spa is now. I don’t remember it now but it might be a restaurant. Business in the city come and go. For every shop, restaurant, or spa that shuts down, a new one opens and takes its place. Just like that; a cycle of sorts.
