We had an early start as we boarded our bus for our group tour to the Mekong Delta.

We visited a bee farm and enjoyed natural honey tea and dried fruits. Alaina was so brave to hold the bee frame.

Then we walked a little further to where we would take our private longtail boat ride.

Next stop was to a coconut candy factory. Free samples and learning how they make them.  We even bought some at the end.

We got back to our hotel and got ready to meet a friend of mine from high school that is currently living in Vietnam.  An evening walk and ending with ice cream rounded our full, fun day!
