Down the Mekong: Voyage of Discovery
Superior - main floor Sat 9:30am-10:15am
In March 2023 Dave was joined by 3 intrepid paddlers to kayak down the Mekong River through Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam to the South China Sea. The friends experienced spectacular landscapes, rich history, ancient spirituality, a legacy of war and genocide, environmental challenges, friendly people, and the delicious food of Southeast Asia. Dangerous conditions became the opportunity to “linger with the lotus” and discover hope for this amazing region.
