The road trip continued, and the landscape kept changing; we were fortunate to have a skilled driver, and a very knowledgeable guide.
 |
| Climbing up another mountain, we stopped to walk, and take some photos |
 |
| Looking down into this valley, we could see rice fields that had been harvested, separated by corn; the mountains in the distance are in China |
 |
| This heavy truck full of rocks was slowly grinding its way up the hill; we eventually passed it |
 |
| At a "Cultural Village" designed to show tourists the traditional way of life, our guide Thuan demonstrates how to grind corn |
 |
| Looking across to the road we're about to travel on; limestone dominates the landscape, the climate is dry, and the people have a very hard life. We could see the steep paths they take to get to their corn fields. Zoom in to see a dwelling on the bottom right. |
 |
| We walk a ways down the mountain |
 |
| And see boys walking up |
 |
| They're taking home grass for the cows |
 |
| Not fast enough on the shutter! I wanted a picture of the houses on the side of the mountain, and got this guy as well! Photobomber! |
