many might. not get out and they can jot that down on them and not in life if you

want them back. one. several families share the dangers of the rapids. each has its own fishing take. noya and his colleagues catch up to one hundred kilos but dave using a remarkable method. that i. love it a lot about. it what i. feel what.

the current pushes the fish into their ingenious wooden ramps all they have to do is pick the fish out of the woods. the mekong is home to two hundred different species of fish the largest of which are cool with a trap that must be set in the middle of the rapids. thank . god i'm not about that ha ha ha. ha ha ha ha this.

but you did not love us and i'm in the book and i'm good and i'm not that good not . going to be able to come back. oh we're. not. going to head up the books. one of you will. run but they had to kill people i don't think either of you now want to know about it below is it up i said it was. good no. good mother lay it all by say. what their. fears have you got it what i. each year two will three fishermen i'll take up the make all. the law abiding want to me. he said yes and i'm

turning a run nearly fifty meters long it's. no easy task. in the distance lies the infamous ghost. one of the most turns in the river.

this time the ghost was leaving. on their last trip the raft was ranked against the wall. and its bamboo cargo scattered into the river. one song the song. a motor boat comes to help. the river bank marks the end of the trip. everybody had. given up on and again.

and again. i don't know if i can lead. you down to it without you. back on land the bamboo must travel another thirty kilometers through rain and mud before reaching the processing plant in. the jungle road so slippery on the droid the band leader can only take a portion of the goods. being car. been mounted him in the night out back and have been. accurately been manatee how often are you naming a friday and they have to wait a year but you know i did call buddy in the morgue and i share my pain like you
