  | A daytrip from Ubon Ratchathani We're heading east from Ubon, towards the Mekhong and Laos. A fairly easy days drive, around 200km, roads are good all the way. First stop, Phibun Mangsahan.  Phibun has got a pleasant location by the Mun River, and it has been a day trip destination for Ubonites for some time. The stalls sell various souvenir bric a brac, and items of clothing. We were accosted here by a group of students of the female variety, wanting their photo taken with us- happy to comply, of course. The Mun River enters some shallow rapids here-  Theres always some locals doing a spot of fishing, more in dry season Mrs tells me-  It's a pleasant spot to pull over, stretch the legs, browse the stalls for a few minutes, might even find a place for Lunch next time.  Not today though, we're going further afield.
