vietnam day 2! - the Mekong Delta

day 2 was spent in a 1-day tour in the Mekong Delta.. delta is made up from the deposition of suspended sediment the the downstream of a river.. for more info, click here ....

actually juz 1 day is not enough to see the whole delta de.. and actually the tours provided are all very brief... touch and go.... they say will bring us to Tortoise Island, but we go there only for lunch leh...also nv intri anything abt it to us... how it got it's name etc etc... and also nv tell us anything abt the 3 other islands - Dragon, Phoenix and Unicorn.... we din even get to see how ppl work in the agri fields... thou rice cultivation makes up their major source of income there... anyway,,,, the pics!!!
