Another early start and it was to head straight for the dock for our rowing boat round the floating fishing village. This was true Viatnamese life and was good to get away from the tourist route! We were taken through homes on the river with children just shouting 'Hello' and waving before we were taken to the caged fish breeding farm where 1000s of fish kept to obviously breed. After this we rowed back through the village to a Cham Village where we would get on...

Met up with Briege and Layne at the bus stop to start our trip to Cambodia. After 3 hours on the bus we finally stopped to get on the Mekong Delta. We were taken by boat through a floating village and markets, looking at how rice paper and coconut candy is made. We were then taken back onto the Mekong for a one hour boat journey up the river. After another 4 hour bus journey (we weren't told that our 'boat trip' consisted of 7 hour land travel) we landed in...

Viet Cong soldiers would hide in them for months at a time and use them for surprise attacks and quick getaways agains...

Dave had previously decided that it would be best to not bother pre booking accommodation before arriving and that...

Another nice lie in! We hired the same motor bike and made our way back down to Will and Monica's again. The sun wasn't too hot so we all decided to walk up the fairy spring. The fairy spring is a river that you literally walk up. The water is only about 2 inch deep and the bottom is sand so it's really easy and quite refreshing. 2 young Vietnamese lads invited themselves to be our guides for the day, of course for a little cheeky fee that they would later expec...
