Sail down the Mekong, one of the world’s great rivers, toward the Vietnamese border. The Mekong is truly the “Mother River of Southeast Asia,” sustaining civilizations through the centuries. Pass by some of the Mekong rice fields. The Khmer Empire was founded on a rice surplus, and rice is still the main staple of Vietnamese cuisine. This evening, attend an onboard screening of the 2002 film The Quiet American, based on the Graham Greene novel set in 1952 Saigon. (B, L, D)
