On Monday we went to STA travel to change our flight for Bangkok to Delhi until September 2 or 3. Then we went to the Lao airline office (very few travel agents in Thailand book Lao Airways tickets). I had found a rate online for $150, but they said that it was not available so we ended up paying $200 for each of us to fly from Vientiane-Luang Prabang and Luang Prabang-Hanoi. Then they said that we had to pay in cash. Since our ATM card was not working and we did not have a passport to exchan...

So I head up to Laos, since my Thailand visa expires in a couple of weeks. The Laos visa costs US $30 for 2 weeks. It's a good thing I don't want to stay here very long anyhow. Vientiane is the Capital of Laos. It's really hot as of now, about 98 degrees in the day and 78 at night. Vientiane is very dusty. At night you can see a haze of dust that covers the whole place. If you thought the LA smog was bad, Vientiane is worse. And what's really annoying is that the dust builds up on your skin v...

It's our last day in Lao. It's a country that is still very much developing. As we walked here to an internet cafe there were road works everywhere, a sign that things are still at that 'development' stage. Unlike at home where there is roadworks everywhere, as life just goes on around them. There are roadworkers who just stop work and have a siesta in the middle of the day from the oppressive heat. But enough of roadworks... to reminisce about the last few days. We had a remarkable experienc...

... to you. Naughty things. By this I presume they wish to steal your passport.<br><br>Myself not being a fan of paying for sex (unless you count getting people drunk and there is a limit to what I will shell out on that) just laugh as the girls say in the most ridiculous accent ever "Haw-row". Its like Team America and Kim Jong II. **** yeah. Day time monks. Night times pro's. Or maybe I just got lucky with my hotel. Do they have lady boys in Laos ...

... can eat vegetarian buffet for next to nothing (50 cents, I think). From Luang Prabang we chartered a tuk-tuk to take us to Tat Kuang Si, a picture perfect multi-tiered waterfall. We shared the tuk-tuk with some South American guys we met and spent the day swimming and jumping from rope swings into the crystal clear turquoise pools at each different level of the falls. <br><br>After a few days in Luang Prabang we headed north again to Nong Khiaw. What a ...

... of the Arc de Triomphe which is situated on a street which is styled (poorly) after the Champs de Elysses. Puxtay would have been stunning if finished but it is basically a concrete slab with some concrete detailing - good views of Vientiane from the top though. Hannah and I then headed to Wat Siskatet, it houses over 2000 buddhas of all different shapes and ...

... hour bar from the night before (where it all started to go wrong!) and it cost us the best part of maybe £5 which was a fortune in Laos but it was a huge 3 course meal with fresh salad and ice-cream and worth every penny! Ollie decided he'd have to pay up for the lock if we ever wanted to leave with his passport and the manager said he would let Ollie know if it cost less than $200 and give him some money back........<br><br>

... this place looked like the front for some kinda back room casino until you got out back to villa, which is also currently under construction. Its a place to sleep, so eh, who cares. <br><br><br><br>Liron and I went for a walk around town and had dinner on what would've been the bank of the Mekong River if it wasn't the dry season. Actaully the deck we ate on, we later found out, would be under water during the rainy season, which is kinda crazy since the ...

... we go to visit a big temple, Pha That Luang.<br>Second is the History of Laos museum. It was interesting because I didn't really know anything about Laos. It seemed like there was constant war in Laos' past.<br>Next we went to a large market. It's mostly contained in a large multi-level building.<br>Finally we go to eat a restaurant in town, complete with ice cream for ...
