Freshwater dolphins in Kratie & climbing a "big mountain"

Rare as freshwater dolphins are, we saw them this morning playfully swimming in the Mekong Delta River near Kratie. There are about 60 to 100 of them that live in this part of the river, and even though they are a bit shy of our boat (the closest one coming maybe 5 metres away), they were spectacular to watch.

We also hiked up to the top of "the big mountain" as they call it, which is rather small, but its not right to judge....this may have been the biggest mountain some of the locals have ever seen and I wasn't going to say anything different. Standing next to a temple from the very top of the "big mountain", the view of the town below and the Mekong River were actually quite beautiful.

Tomorrow we head to Mondulkiri and then to Rattanakiri to hopefully see some gorgeous waterfalls and do some trekking. Maybe we will run into some hill tribes that live in the jungle that talk with click's and clack's...now that would be awesome!
