We visited a monastery and from the rooftop  had a great view over the village.  there was a lot of boat activity.

 Young children were bathing and washing their hair in the lake.  

In the other direction we looked out over  these fishing nets

Backlit children leaving school.  Those without boats waded through the water with their books held high over their heads.

From this village we transferred to a dug out canoe and took off with our oarswoman for the eerie and beautiful submerged mangrove forest.  

Incredibly peaceful save for the calling birds and the crab fishing macaque monkeys in the tree tops not far above our heads.

Before we left we went once more into the  open lake where large areas were covered with a carpet of small white daisy like flowers.
