Rice paddies benefiting from the newly developed small scale irrigation system.
Traveling by boat to visit the irrigation site.
Eating lunch together after the field visit. Lunch included glutinous rice, fried pork, hard boiled eggs, steamed bamboo shoots and a spicy dipping sauce.

Wendy,
I enjoy your writing and your humour - we still miss you at emcn!
Actually, so much so, that my sister and I are planning a trip to Laos! Yes, I think we really can go. It has been awhile since I have thought about leaving town but I feel it is ok now. We have talked about places and times and have settled on Laos in January. I am really hoping you will be around.
My email is doreen_dean@yahoo.com. Please write if you have time.
Maybe we can bring something for you, or even do something, but at the very least we can take you out for dinner.
despite the leeches, i know you must have loved the field visit ... and the mud between your toes ... and the mangoes - give us an update on your mangoes ... please drop an email - let me know how you are doing ... we still think of you all ... thanh retired from EMCN last week and many asked how you were doing too!

Looking forward to it already.
