APAD 339: A magical moment
Here’s another sundog photo my husband took last Sunday. I know, I could not get over the giddiness yet 🙂 so pardon me.
A magical (double) sundog moment for me right there.
Sundogs are not so common – but are also not rare – in my part of the world. I have read stories about sundogs, it’s mystical nature and the many beliefs of many cultures surrounding this natural phenomenon. Seeing one for the first time last week was just pure magic. I am still in awe.
Thank you, Mother Nature, for letting me see one of your grand displays. Truly a memorable one.
You can find the story here at Sreisaat Adventures.

APAD 330: Sunday sights
This is how it looks like on weekends in front of the Royal Palace.
The place to be on weekends here in the city. Lots of colourful sights that appeal to both young and old alike.

APAD 316: Sunset over Tuol Kork
Saturday afternoons have become kite-flying time for us in the hood. When I say “us” it includes the neighbourhood kids who are in my husband’s English class and their siblings, apart from me, my husband and my younger brother.
Last week we started at 5.30pm. Surprisingly the sun was still up. The kids love this weekly activity because it not only engages them to speak English but they also get to fly kites (made by my husband) and chase them while flying low. It is a different kind of thrill for them, something these kids have not done as they are mostly occupied with computer and video games at home.
While they were busy running around, I noticed the beautiful sky. The sun’s golden rays were starting to fade as darkness started to creep in to make way for the darkness to envelop the sky.
Love the silhouette of the houses against the dramatic sky.
…
We’re doing it again tomorrow. I hope it doesn’t rain like last week so I can take another beautiful sunset.

APAD 307: Traffic jam on a very hot day
Went out to do some errands this morning but I left the house at the wrong time of the day.
Uh-Oh.
Traffic jam. This is one reason why I don’t really look forward to running errands around the city. It irritates me a lot (when I’m on car that is close to a stand still) knowing that I’m losing time but stop short of complaining and whining lest the negativity spread to my husband and ruin both our day.
What comes to your mind whenever you get caught in a jam and your car is close to a standstill?

APAD 287: Great day for kite-flying
It’s the height of summer here in Phnom Penh and my husband and I found a new activity to do… it’s kite-flying!
We're lucky to have found a nice spot for flying kites.
Does kite-flying appeal to you?
The trick to this great summer activity is to find a nice spot with a steady breeze. Or pick a day that is just windy, pack some sandwiches and drinks and let the kite-flying fun begins.
It was one of the best things my husband and I has ever done together in Phnom Penh. I’m sure the fun we had will be best remembered as we grow older in the years to come.
How about you, what’s your favourite activity to do during summer?
