A slow, sun-splashed raft parts the green like a pen across paper as you ease onto the Lethe River. Tall trees lean close; a raft captain’s pole clicks and the current nudges the bamboo craft forward. Birdsong threads through the hush and, for a little while, the world reduces to the soft scrape of water and the captain’s stories.
