Zwei Tage am Mekong
... Whisky-Village, den einheimischen Namen konnte ich mir nicht merken), dort gab es allerlei Waren die man uns zum Kauf angeboten hat. Eine Butterfahrt auf Laotisch quasi. Wir haben Whisky gekauft.
Die Höhlen am Fluss waren für mich nicht so spannend, viele tausende Buddhas die in den dunklen Räumen aufgestellt waren. Irgendwie war die Fahrt mit dem Boot (es war eher ein Kahn) auch anstrengend, da es auf dem Fluss recht kühl war und die Vibrationen ...
Racing with Santa Clause
... are no ATM's and power is provided by generator from dusk to about 9:30 PM. Still this village is on the tourist circuit (courtesy of a write-up in Lonely Planet) and the first view to greet us was a line of bamboo bungalows with river views.

De volgende dag zijn we gaan wandelen en belandden we in een klein dorpje, waar een lokaal vrouwtje al om 12 uur ‘s middags aan de Lao Lao (lokale rijstwhisky) zat. Ach, er was verder ook niet zo veel te beleven dus wat moet je ...
Laos
... with lots of wats and french architecture, although very touristy. We celebrated Christmas with a couple bottles of wine and a wonderful six course turkey dinner, I might say one of the best I have ever had if my mom didn’t read this ;) One of the most amazing things about Luang Prabang is that every morning all of the young Buddhist Monks walk the streets to collect offerings of rice from the locals, which turned out to be ...
