Children jumping in Cai Lay!Going downstream the Mekong Delta in southern Vietnam affords a kind of eye-level communion, whcih you can't get on a bus or train.

 

Most of the delta's roads are built atop narrow levees so the only way to get round is by bike. These are rice paddies near by the village Thu Thua.

 

Clothing, fruits, souvenirs and much more can be found in the trading post of Cai Be.

 

The game Pick-up soccer in Cai Be is playing on a field enclosed with hand-tied nets.
