Laos is the wonderfully laid back member of South East Asia. It is one of those countries that you travel in not to see huge tourist attractions but to feel the culture and wonderful warmth of the people.
The capital, Vientiane is far from the other capitals in this part of the world. There is no manic traffic, no motorbikes carrying 40 chickens, just a few tuk tuks and people attempting to ressurect the capital. It is definitely a city that is on the up, but in true Laos style that is taking a while. Probably one of the the most interesting places is Luang Prabang. An UNESCO protected city that is being wonderfully restored. There are hundreds of Buddhist temples and even more young Buddhist monks wandering about the city. Its great to sit at one of the pavement cafes and watch the goings on.

DAY 6 (Continued):We got to Vientiane, pretty much having a tour around the city as the driver was dropping everyone off wherever they wanted. We got off at the bus station and whilst trying to ignore the people pestering me, I checked the timetable, "Ah theres one at half one, what time is it Sarj?" "Half one!" Crap! The same guy that was pestering us asked us where we were going and then ran across the courtyard and waved his hands at the bus - it was just setting...

I woke early and left Charlotte in Muang Ngoi as she was planning on heading east and I was thinking of going the opposite way. I decided to head back to Luang Prabang to sort my Laundry and to catch a bus elsewhere.
The guys from Muang Ngoi were also on the boat and bus back to Luang Prabang so I spent the evening having dinner with them. After we'd eaten we ended up doing a tour of the bars and even into a Laos club. I can remember vaguely dancing away before some slow cheesy love song cam...

The van dropped us off at the bus terminal and we went to check the timetable. The first one leaves at 13:30 and the second at 16:30. "What time is it?", Wayne asked. I said 13:30. Let's go! Then a bus conductor waved at us and told us to get on the bus! Neither of us wanted to wait until 16:30 for the next trip, really! So even if our tummies have to suffer without anything to digest for another 4 hours, we got to do it! :) It was packed but we have to squeeze ourselves in and ju...

After a disappointing experience trekking in Chaing Mai I had high hopes that the rumors of a more authentic experience in northern Laos were true. I met five good people at the border town of Hyuay Sai. During the three and a half hour long windy minivan journey we determined that we all had similar trekking plans. We chose Nam Tha Ecotourism Project of the two possible trekking outfits in town and were not disappointed. Unlike the gimmicky tours offere...
