Sooo...do we do this boat ride?

On our little adventure, i noticed we could take a boat ride. we had just checked out all the fish that were in this swamp in a little museum of sorts so the kids were very excited to go and see them out in the water. but from the looks of the fish...i didn't want anyone getting too close...they looked like flesh eating fish to me! but we decided we would take a boat and have fun. i was nervous being the adult and all but was confident things would go fine. then we saw the boats....
THEN i told the boat driver..."i'm scared. maybe we shouldn't do this" and he said "no worries" and i asked what boat? because in my mind...i wouldn't get in any of them! but then he pointed to this one and began scopping all the water out of it! do you see him in the photo? ha! ha...ha.......ha...he was was serious.

even the kids are watching him in disbelief...are we really going in this boat?

but yes! we made it out on the water and it was a nice ride...nothing happened other than all the kids trying to see what was out on one side of the boat at the SAME time...so we had to have lessons in taking turns so the boat didn't flip! ha!

this is harvested from the swamp...then dried and turned into rattan furniture...and i am sure then exported to the world
