Nearly the end….

Ghost Festival
Much of the population here in Cambodia has some Chinese ancestry and celebrates all the Chinese festivals. Click here to see some of the shops selling offerings for the ancestors.
Choices, choices…
Rain’s a-coming…
This is the rainy season in Cambodia and we’re getting lots of rain this year! Basically everyone carries a rain poncho along and when the drizzles start, the drivers stop and put on their rain PPE.
No Plastic Jesus
This is the driver of the three-wheeled tuk-tuk ahead of the one I am in. He has added a dashboard in his tuk-tuk and then established a collection of items there. No plastic Jesus statue but he’s still got lots of room on the right side.
It’s different here….
In cold-climate countries, you would never see the type of white vent blocks in the picture above. They indicate the presence of a toilet and are open to allow air to circulate. In countries with a real winter, a building is always “tight,” to prevent heat from escaping. That isn’t a problem here as is further indicated by the pipes on the outside of the wall–instead of inside the wall–because there is no danger of their freezing.
