One time Mekong and back

Von w-scharfenberg, 23:02

In the morning I meet Karnda and Derek in the restaurant. We decide to go to the Mekong today, before we meet Ingo and Ohn for dinner

At the house of Karnda her sister Witchai decides to go with us. My car is made just for two, but here they don't care too much about safety.  So the girls are sitting in the back, where no safety belts are fixed.

On the way we pass an old Mercedes Benz  W110 or similar. I stop, go 100m back and try to park the car .... unfortunately there is a post, made of concrete. The post is stronger than the car... I hope the insurance will pay.

The Mercedes is in a bad condition and so we proceed. After a while we stop at a temple. I don't know the name of it but it will be easy to find out. It is the biggest buddhist temple I have ever seen! It has three stories and thousands of people will fit inside. They are building now for 21 years on it and still it is not ready.

It takes us a long time until we arrive at the Mekong river. I eat some small octopusses from a street grill. But the girls are so hungry that we have to go to a restaurant directly at the Mekong The food is perfect, and the sight is nice.

Ingo, of course, is "not amused" that we can't be back in Roi Et for dinner.... which I can understand very good! After a long day we arrive back in Roi Et at about 9pm
