Half day in Sadec

Sadec is about a four hour drive up the Mekong Delta from Ho Chi Minh City - actually only 150 km, but the going is slow.

Our half day meeting (actually, we were just observers of a review of a youth intervention program) took place in an old French colonial building, now the People's Committee headquarters for this district. That's the two story yellow building. The river shots are taken from across the street, showing the market area of Sadek, on a tributary of the Mekong.

After the meeting, our local hosts took us to a famour local historical pagoda. During the war, this was a known place for freedom fighters to hide.
