@ninahaskin, thanks for stopping by, I told my husband when I was writing this post and looking for pics, that we've been very very fortunate to be able to do the traveling that we've done so far.
I still have an Alaska trip on my bucket list, plus Niagra Falls and the Grand Canyon. There are so many beautiful things here to see and do.
That bamboo raft was indeed an interesting "cruise" down the river!
