rafting the Pho Chhu (man river)

our first day on the water was a "warm-up" day. we met the crew, and our guide, kallie (I'm sure that's not the right spelling, but that is how it sounds). the river water is quite cold, but we weren't doing any big Rapids (only II-III), so we opted out of wetsuits, and just wore splash jackets. 

it was a really nice 2 hour float with a few splashes but the real highlight of that stretch was coming to the confluence of the pho Chhu and mo Chhu right in front of the punakha dzong in the center of town.
