digging new rows
It's rainy season here and the Mekong is high.. 6 days ago it flooded Khen Khoan's garden -- ripe with asparagus, beans, basil and cilantro. Kellie and I helped re-dig the rows in preparation for the laborious task of re-planting all over again.

As an alternative to town, K and I tuk-tuked it 3k south and found Mr. P and his sweet wife and plenty of goats happily having babies and giving up some of their milk supply for farm-made goat cheese and goat yogurt. Both of which I and Kellie the vegan sampled regularly. There were pigs, chickens, pheasants and pigeons toddling around as well.

Moving on to Vang Vieng, we found out upon arrival via the local bus that the main activities included ganja and tubing down the Mekong, where you can stop at any number of 2 0bard for a beer or a mulberry mojito. The mojitos being sold by our new friend Emily, a high school math teacher from Moscow. residing at the organic farm K and i stayed after realizing that town was not exactly our scene. Town... that is another story. I'll get to that later.
