Boating on the Mekong River in Kratie, Cambodia

Today’s travel photo is of the stern of our boat while cruising along the Mekong River in search of Irrawaddy Dolphins near Kratie, Cambodia. Kratie is one of the best places to view the rare Irrawaddy Dolphins that inhabit the Mekong River. We headed north of town to the village of Kampie where we were hired a boat and driver to take us out to the areas that the dolphins like the hang out. Once there we tied up to a tree in the water and sat in silence as the little dolphins popped up for air all around us. It was an amazing experience and I felt very privileged to be able to view these interesting creatures.
