4000 Islands
The 4000 islands are at the Mekong just at the Cambodian border. If the this delta really consists of 4000 islands is difficult to say. It also varies very much about the wet and dry season. We went to the most southern worth mentionable island which has the most reasonable prices. The sunsets are beautiful and you can forget about the dirty food you just ate and the generator next door that will turn on as soon it gets dark. Freddy treated his foot and I tried to think about something else than my digestion. Mendel also caught up with us and we made a bicylce tour as soon everybody felt more or less in shape. The paths are rough and the bicycles shit. After about 4 hours of the 6 tyres 3 were without air. But we had seen a lot of local huts and the great Mekong, some little lakes were we bathed in, buffaloes and pretty big waterfalls even tough it was the dry season. After 3 nights we decided to go on to Cambodia. A 12 hours bus trip to the remote areas of northwestern Cambodia.
