One can still cycle across this bridge. Our friend just did it the other day. We've done it too but it wasn't much fun.

Excellent shot!
Looks like a female crimson marsh glider.

Coming to the end of the rainy season so I'm guessing it will get even higher as the water comes down from further inland.

We were here briefly in 2016. It seems a more prosperous now. Lots of motor car sales outlets and modern supermarkets. The old French buildings around the church in the central area are thankfully still there.

We haven't been to Savannakhet since 2008 or 2009, but we really loved it then. Very beautiful old colonial buildings that gave the town some real Luang Prabang-like potential.

Five minutes into the video Leigh said : "I thought that they had 16 days of rain". And then we got to the 17th minute!

Thanks Bill. I know zero about butterflies but the birding has been thin in Vietnam and I had to try and photograph something.

Great photo! Some species of white, but they are awfully hard to nail down the species.
