Summary[edit]
.jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | We were on a tour of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, Via KL. We did what most tourists to the area do, we went on a Mekong Delta tour. All was well, we were in a diesel powered longboat. Later that stopped, and each couple was paddled in a small rowboat, like a sampan. Were were heading to lunch, through small canals through one of the many islands, when we heard another boat coming fast. It was a fruit boat, taking goods to market, piloted by a young couple, who should not have "short cutted" through the small canals. There was never a moment that they were going to miss us, we had no chance,, they just couldnt see over the load of fruit. I stood up and yelled, and at the last minute, they backed off, hit us and we slid along side them. I hurled the 1DX and 2 Zeiss lenses on top of the fruit on their boat, and down we went into the Mekong. Much panic and confusion. Deb got some bruising and a very wet phone, I was ok. But wet. We all got onboard the fruit boat, sorted things out, and went on to lunch with a bit of delayed shock. All ok now, and the camera gear didnt get wet. The boat was retrieved in peices, I felt sorry for the poor lady who owned it. |
