Long Khong, Chau Doc and a Fish Farm

Today we crossed the border into Vietnam. We visited two small villages and ended up at a local fish farm.

Many of theses homes were created by squatters.

They are among the least expensive residences.

This was a resort that we passed through. I just liked the trees.

This is water hyacinth. The first time I heard the name, I thought Thinh (our new local guide) said "water icing".
The name seems appropriate as these plants float on the surface. Our sampan became stuck when some got caught in the propellor.

The water level is high.

Maybe he was clearing his prop.

This is a small water taxi.

Fish in a frenzy under the house.

This is a new fish farm being built. The cage is built first, then the house goes on top.
