Hole
I took this picture from our small room on a very small boat cruising the Greek Island. Our cabin was just above the water line. Not exactly a luxury cruise but one of the most fun cruises ever.
Vanish
How I learned how to vanish in the Cu Chi Tunnels in Viet Nam.
From Wikipedia:
“The tunnels of Củ Chi are an immense network of connecting tunnels located in the Củ Chi District of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam, and are part of a much larger network of tunnels that underlie much of the country. The Củ Chi tunnels were the location of several military campaigns during the Vietnam War, and were the Viet Cong‘s base of operations for the Tết Offensive in 1968.“

Doomed Canoe Trip
This post is written for Friday Fictioneers.
They were veterans of many a canoe trips in Northern Michigan. Numerous trips on the Au Sable river in their minds made them professionals even though the river only drops 650 feet (200 m) from its source at the junction of Kolka and Bradford Creeks to its end approximately 138 miles east.
They described this river to their guide in Argentina and asked him to pick a river to test their skills. “Iguazu River”, their guide informed them sounded similar.
As their canoe departed the landing the guide shouted, “Be careful with that first waterfall, it’s a killer.”
Narrow
If you are visiting the North Eastern U.S. you will find plenty of these narrow bridges.
Fear For Your Life
I had a late departure on my last day in Vietnam. My tour guide offered to take me around Ho Chi Minh City. Talk about fear. On several occasions I felt like we were going to crash because of all the cluster of motorcycles and the crowed crossings. Nobody wanted to yield the right of way.
RDP = Cluster
Word of the day = Crossing
DONNYBROOK
The Ragtag Daily Prompt is Donnybrook.
On our trip to Northern Ireland this is one of the many signs that reference the mother of all Donnybrook’s: The Troubles.
Oh Danny Boy!
