LAK
LAKE
Lac
Lake,
located
56
km
from
Buon
Ma
Thuot,
is
in
the
southern
part
of
the
province,
close
to
National
Highway
26.
The
great
body
of
water
hemmed
between
low
mountains
has
been
home
to
many
kinds
of
wading
birds
for
a
long
time.
On
the
lakeside
of
Lac
Lake
is
a
magnificent
palace
owned
by
the
last
Nguyen
King,
Bao
Dai.
Standing
on
the
balcony
of
the
second
floor,
visitors
get
a
panoramic
view
of
the
valley
and
the
lake
below.
The
remains
the

Jun
Village
By
the
side
of
LAK
LAKE
is
the
sizeable
the
M'nong
Rlam
village
of
Jun
with
over
30
long
houses.
Different
from
the
M'nong
Gar
who
live
in
on-ground
houses,
the
M'nong
Rlam
live
in
longhouses
which
are
built
on
stilts
like
the
Edeh.
Their
method
of
building
long
houses
has
remained
simple
and
consists
mainly
of
binding
bamboo
with
thatch
for
the
roof
and
walls,
constructing
support
pillars
and
framing
with
wood
using
tenon-mortise
technique.
No
metal
nails
are
used.
The
houses
are
cool
and
well-ventilated,
thanks
to
the
building
materials
of
thatch
and
bamboo.
In
the
M'nong
language,
Jun
means
"jutting
out."
The
village
is
named
Jun
because
it
juts
out
from
green
LAK
LAKE.
Coming
to
LAK
LAKE,
you
may
ride
elephants
around
the
village,
row
dugout
canoes
on
the
lake
or
enjoy
the
Gong
show
and
drinking
jar-wine
with
the
villagers.
You
are
welcome
to
stay
overnight
in
the
traditional
longhouses
at
a
budget
price,
allowing
you
to
experience
the
local
lifestyle
of
the
village.

Dear Chinh,
I hope you are happy and in good health…
Of course I remember you! And I remember all those nice places we went and the conversations we had.
How are you? I am well and writing to you from Sydney, where I am visiting friends for a couple of weeks.
It was a pleasure meeting you and I am glad you got to be my guide in the Central Highlands, because you were very professional and always in good humor.
I do not know when will I ever come back to the Village of Thuot’s Father, but if I do, I promise to look you up.
By the way, if you were to find the house where I lived, maybe I would come back sooner.
Stay in contact and I will do the same.
Best regards,
Francisco "TJ" Tejeda
