23rd Mar - Today we woke to the sound of the dog chasing the chickens. After the horrible start we went to see the pigs. The family had two buffalos, chickens, pigs and fish. After we went on a one and half hour walk, we saw lots of rice paddies and poor houses. Jonathan

In the morning we went for a one and a half hour walk. We saw a very little waterfall but with enormous boulders. There was a very traditional village, which we walked through. It was different because there were stilt houses and there were loads of rice paddies. In the village we gave some children sweets, their reaction was to smile but they were very shy. There were loads of chicks and hens. We were walking past mountains and enormous forests. It was so green and peaceful. There was a girl working who was about 11-13 years old with a baby strapped to her back. I said; "zin chow", which means "hello". It was interesting to see how different people live. The village is for a minority tribe, which was for the H'mong people. There are 53 minority groups. Sophie
