Task 1: The November change of the flow on Tonle Sap River symbols the calm of the earth that is no longer under the water. – To bring some calm, upgrade and enjoy a bath: candles, bath bombs, flowers; and of course, a book to read while relaxing.

So, here is a picture of the Guggenheim Bilbao on the banks of the estuary.
