Hammock Time
So I'll pick up the story from where I left off. We arrived at Don Khone a little after lunch, stashed our bags in a restaurant and went on the search for the perfect river fronted chalet complete with hammocks. We didn’t have to look very far before we found the perfect place called Pakha Guesthouse overlooking the Mekong. The place was 30, …
Heading North on a Local Bus
There are days when things go wrong and do not get better, there are others when things go wrong and get a lot better. Today was the latter. I was not looking forward to a journey of anything betwwen 4 and 7 hours on a 'Local Bus'. Local Bus normally means clapped out wreck overcrowded with people, live chickens, freight, crying babies, people …
Vriendelijk Laos
We zijn inmiddels alweer zes dagen in Laos. Sinds ons vorige verslag vanuit Hanoi zijn we zuidwaarts gereden naar Vinh in vijf dagen. Onderweg zijn we twee keer een dag blijven hangen in een stadje.

Or a clapped out old hotel that has seen better days. Depends on your mood. Mine's OK so it's a nice old Colonial Building. Rooms are dated but clean. Bathrooms are huge, the shower is HOT. The aircon is not great but the balcony is lovely.
