On a Slow Boat Down Mekong River

The slow boats used to be the only way of transporting cargo/produce between villages but now there’s sufficient income from tourists that the boats are kitted with wooden benches. We’d heard that the benches are very hard hence Fi and I had no hesitation in buying cushions, Terry of course didn’t bother so thankfully we got some soft seats.
