Sandra Soares came all the way from Bermuda to cruise the Mekong with us, and is herself a yacht agent and dockmaster with Bermuda Yacht Services. Here she is giving a geography lesson on the location of her home island to Captain Prunier after one of our many spectacular dinners on board, as Group Leader Thoa Nguyen looks on.

Ken and Sharon Walker live in Green Valley, Arizona, and the Mekong River by Barge Program is their tenth. Ken is a biology professor from Victor College in California, and has pointed out several features of the snails, tropical fruits, and birds we have eaten and otherwise encountered on our journey. Sharon enjoys Road Scholar programs because of the people she meets while traveling.

Rosamunde Ebacher is a retired nurse practitioner and midwife from Otisfield, Maine, where she enjoys walking year-round, swimming in summer, the Red Sox, and her dogs. This is her fourth Road Scholar program, which she is enjoying immensely while looking forward to her next one, a two-week journey to Antartica in February.
