IGS Research Vessel Day 2

After sunrise and breakfast on the river, the island of Ong Ho was explored. Today was about physical aspects of movement. Local water markets and their peculiarities were observed on several tours in our small dinghies. The islandof birth of the second President of the Vietnamese Republic was explored on bicycles. In addition, the students switched from the lower to the upper arm of the Mekong with the research ship. What this has to do with the movement ofthe ship and why it floats was examined in the subsequent physics workshop. The day was then closed by the in-house student ship band.
