Now, a massive slug of water is working its way down the Mississippi River, forcing the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to deliberately flood farmland to spare
riverside towns such as Cairo in Illinois, and threatening near - record water levels all the way to New Orleans.
Finally, there are a couple of places that, for whatever reason, I didn't have time to visit but I hear are great: Banlung, a small
town in northern Cambodia with numerous natural attractions
such as waterfalls, lakes and natural parks, and Kampot, a peaceful
riverside town with a lot to recommend it.
