This time we reached yet another small village in Ben Tre Province...
aahhh...tropical fruits! Water melon, pineapple, longan, papaya and pomelo! Next picture shows our guide swinging on a hammock. 3rd picture is the instrument player and last one is his instrument! Looks like an er-hu yah???
So here we are enjoying traditional music and singing by the local folks, having a sip of tea and a small serving of fruits.
Back to walking again...look see look see
Opps! looks like we are going for a donkey ride!!!

End of the trip concludes us at a coconut candy place where all candies were handmade! shown in last photo. Hmm...i didn't think it was very hygienic so i didnt buy any back home...the girls who were making the candies didnt wear gloves. that was okay by me but they had long nails!!! and worse of all, they had very long hair too which they didn't bun up..and they were perspiring all over!!!! *faints* and they were mopping their sweaty foreheads with the back of their palms.
