River tour to Cai Rong Floating Market

An early wake-up for a 3 hour boat tour down the Mekong toward the largest floating market in the Delta. The ideal time to observe activity is before 8AM so we set off before sunrise...
A one hour ride to Cai Rong floating market.
Our boat driver who was more occupied with making "art" than steering us through the market.

Check out the motors.
Anyone want any Squash? 
We stopped to pick up a bunch of watermelon and witnessed them weighing and loading (by way of throwing) the purchase onto our small boat.  Of course a sample was offered which was a refreshing morning treat.
