Mekong River Expedition February 4, 2014

Our group took a tri-shaw ride(passenger sits in front of the cyclist) for a city tour of Phnom Penh , Cambodia, including the Royal Palace, Silver Pagoda(with dragon tails on roof corners to protect against evil and guarantee Prosperity) and National Museum which includes the world’s largest collection of classical Angkor Period.
After lunch some passengers went to the “Killing Fields” memorial. Before dinner, a group of young orphan girls presented a Cambodian Folkloric Dance on the Sun Deck where they gracefully moved their hands and struck statuesque poses.
