How to Ride on an Water Buffalo Cart


Firstly

Find water buffalo, driver and cart in rural Cambodia and bargain for best price

Mount up

Sit in the middle over axle
Two people sit back to back

The ride

Hang on tight. wear scarf over mouth and nose (I fortunately had a scarf) or eat dust and endure the bumps. 

I enjoyed the experience and wanted to stretch out and take a nap. Some people wanted off right away.

The sunset over the rice fields was nice.

The dismount

Family reunion


The calves tried to follow along the path next to their mothers. More hooves, more dust! Fortunately my water buffalo had no babies
