Floating Market

Quick egg on toast brekkie before we walk to our boat for the day.
Cruise towards the floating market but not before we pick up another group.

With the floating market in sight, we started to wonder where the actual small boats where?

When we got told that the smaller boats only come out 3-6am for the locals.
The bigger boats are for the "tourist".

So not getting us down, we whistle for some coffee and pineapple.

Lunch time. We get dropped off where our guide tells us he has special treats for lunch, cocnut rat, snake, frog and Vietnamese pancake.

Trying them all, I can't complain as the frog and rat was my favorite.

Heading back, we make a "pit stop" where rice paper is made. Showing us the process and tasting the goodies was a good ne off experience.

Still on cruise, we make yet another "pit stop", this time some dried fruits and meats.
Tasting the dried frog and fish was not to bad and would definitely eat again.

Back on land, we load up the bus and head back to Ho chi Minh.Read more
