Our destination for lunch was the "Le Vallee" artist residence, gallery and restaurant, run by a Thai woman who had lived in France and spoke perfect French. We had time to explore the grounds, view some of her paintings and then enjoyed an interesting lunch basically al fresco: under a covered roof just in case of rain, but with open walls, as it is quite customary here in these tropical locations.

After lunch, we moved on with our iron buffalo trucks to the nearby town of Sop Ruak at the confluence of the Ruak with the Mekong rivers, where we visited an interesting small privately owned museum dedicated to the world of opium.

A very picturesque and cheerful place, Joe ...And, according to your smiling faces, lunch was as good as it looked in your photos (unless you really had some fun at local Opium Museum avant le dejeuner 😊)

Thanks Eugene, and yes, the lunch was as good as it looked and probably brightened up our faces, and just to set the record straight: The visit to the Opium Museum was après le dejeuner!
