    The Thais being good Buddhists don't like to kill shit do they, killing each other is OK but don't fuk with the Wasps nest that is directly in the path of the Tourists. There was small sign in Thai warning punters to not go near it.

    So we jumped in the car and headed on further along the Mekong. This area is know as the " Navel of the Mekong " which translates to the deepest part of the Mekong in its entire length. The Giant Mekong Cat Fish gather here to spawn.

In a few weeks we will hit the Far north and do a real nice road trip up there ending back in Bangkok again.
    Definitely a keeper.
    Great pictures.

    Hands up amongst you who knew how deep the Mekong river was at this point in Thailand ? Back in the good old days in the middle of the floods it was 196 meters.
    Today in the dry season " March " it is 100 meters . Jesus, I never new that. Its friggin deep EH.

    Occupational health and safety don't apply here. I suppose the cracking views over into Lao make up for it.

    Love seeing the locals out in their boats, its all irrelevant to them, they just want to catch fish as they have been doing for most of their life.
