Visit Cemetery
Bea’s grandmother’s grave
Bea’s grandfather’s grave
Bea’s brother is in the cemetery on the other side of the road. The sign over the gate is in Vietnamese. Nghĩa Trang Việt Kiểu –> Vietnamese Style Cemetery (Google Translate)
The grass and weeds are taking over this side of the cemetery. It was a bit difficult to find his grave and took us a little while to clear around it. Dempsi is in the backgound standing next to his uncle’s grave.
Buddha Park

On the way to the park, I was able to take a picture of Nong Khai across the Mekong River.
Bea was checking on the roasted bananas and other items at the park.
This is the view of the park from the top of one of the structures which represents hell. The other end of the park represents heaven.
Cookie was taking a picture of us from below.
Dempsi on the inside of the structure.
Here is the structure on the outside.
The tall structure represents heaven.
This is the view from the top of the structure.
Ryan was checking out the cows in the field near the park.
Friendship Bridge
We drove by the bridge so we took a few pictures. Unfortunately I did not get a good picture of the span.
We picked up Lulu on our way back.
