Yesterday I received a call that Pakse Laos was in dire straits and that once again I would be called to bail them out a bit. Living next to the Mekong has some perks but also some alluvial deposits. They told me when I had them build me a place there that I should bring in land to raise the foundation up about six meters. My response at the time was "if it ain't high enough to build on as is then it aint good enough to build on at all." I should have listened!
This is the only home I have that " put me under water."
Anyway here are a pics of how you deal when the when town is under water.
