Bike around Da Lat

Stop 1. Weasel coffee
Robust and Aribica. Families often have 2hectacrs enough for 2000 trees Aribica is better money but more labour.
One weasel can make 8-10 cups of weasel poo coffee per week.
Stop 2. The cricket farm. Tasted cricket cooked in lemongrass ... Not as bad as it looks!
Stop 3. Lunch overlooking the valley. Fish curry, chicken in lemongrass, spring roll, tofu
Stop 4. The silk factory. One of oldest in Vietnam. 1945. Mulberry leaf is best. Need to harvest while worm still inside. Put cocoon into hot water to boil the worm and soften the silk. 105 days from egg to end of cycle. 1 cocoon can make 1 metre of silk. But they weave together for strength.
In Vietnam they have been growing silk for 1000years.
Then we ate a silk worm .. tasted like peanut butter.
Stop 5. The elephant falls. After all the rain the falls we in full flow. Steep, slippery climb down to experience a behind the scenes waterfall view.
Stop 6. Flower gardens .... Hundreds of blooms.
Dirty and wet ... We come back to find no hot water 🤔Read more
