Dream Trip 2008: February

Great Travel Moment

Although my friend Scott has amazing balance on a snowboard, one wouldn't guess it after trekking with him through the muddy hills of Vietnam. For over 6 hours we "trekked" or mostly slipped down muddy pathways with the Hmong Hilltribe people. We traveled through some of the most beautiful scenery I could ever imagine. But the image that sticks out in my mind is this photo of Scott being held up by a woman with a baby on her back, who was hardly half his size. Everyone, even Scott got a kick out watching him slip, without fail, every minute or so and it is a "trek" we will never forget.
