Independence Day Cambodian style

No additional team members arrived today. More coming in on the 11th.

But much festivities as November 9 marks a national celebration for the country. And it lasts from the 9th through the next two days. Three in all. His Majesty King Norodom Sihamoni presided in the morning at the Independence Monument in a celebration to mark the 58th anniversary of national independence from France. Parades and fireworks. And a holiday from work and jobs for many Cambodians.
