Arrival in Vientiane and worst accomodation ever!

... shampoo in his hair, he'd had no choice but to get a bucket from the big vat of (most probably rancid) water in the room and pour it over his head. The water never came back on, and he was unable to have a proper shower. I then went upstairs to get some stuff, and it was only then that I fully took in the horror of the room. The beds were hard and the matresses practically non-existent, the cheery teddy bear sheets belying the filth that no doubt rested beneath them. The floor ...

Visa stresses

The Only One

After crossing the border from Vietnam to Laos - it was impossible to change any money - so we got stung at the border for our Visa - the exchange rate was not good, we then landed in a small town in Laos called Lac Xao, this is a small place - no Internet, no money changer no ATM and only one restaurant which is aptly called the Only One - at this point we still had no money- but the girl in the ...

A Croissant and an Espresso

... 10oz of pure joy on a plate. It was perfectly cooked. The pepper sauce was creamy and had a lovely bite. The steak itself was a tender mouthwatering red and the pommes frites and figs served as a perfect accompaniment. We feasted on food and beer and felt like humans once more. The restaurant was quite good, French in most aspects except that it was called the "Vendome" and was decked out with pictures of Matadors sillhoueted ...

Vientiene

Rough and rugged flight? Not at all &#8211; it was actually a very smooth and pleasant flight and I only wished it had been light outside so we could have seen the rain forest and rivers below.<br>We got an $8 cab to the New Laos Paris Hotel. This was the &#8216;standard fare&#8217; from the taxi desk although I am always really sceptical about this and it always put me in a bad, defensive mood. I always think they are just ripping me off!! It&#8217;s ...

Vang Vieng &Vientaine, Laos(no jungles this time!)

... made his dream come true! It's probably the most surreal place I've been so far... just weird....<br>I managed to flag a bus back ok..... <br>That evening I met Ozzie Matt in the hostel.... we went for drinks down at the river and I probably saw the most amazing sunset ever! We decided to grab some food down there... we ate at a bar that had live frogs, eels, fish and prawns ready to be killed and eaten... and a large dead turtle that we could have eaten.... we both opted for prawns ...

Nong Khai-Vientiane

... across a group of young men playing Petanque, a common sight alongside the river. We also watched locals trawling for fish in the river with framed circular nets, throwing back what looked like undersized fish. A coffee stop enabled me to practice one or two words on the locals - and how they enjoyed correcting me! It appears to be much more relaxed and laid back here than it is in Thailand, and that's saying something! Lots of smiley faces in this capital city which has a huge ...

Vientianne and Savannakhet

... to see but it wasn't quite as impressive as we had imagined as it was very dirty and we couldn't go inside. We headed back to town and spent the afternoon playing cards and using the Internet. Even though Vientianne is the capital of Laos, by the 27th we'd pretty much exchausted the sights so we got on a bus to Savannakhet. We were on the bus all day but finally made our destination by early evening. I had been suffering from an ear ache for the ...
