... let us stay at Tat Lo which was meant to be a good place to explore further from before picking us up on the way back from another tour. This seemed like a good deal and easier than arranging everything ourselves so we booked on. We intended to spend the rest of the day seeing the sights of Pakse before realising there weren't any. Or, as the Lonely Planet puts it: "Pakse is more about being than seeing". Being bored maybe.
Our tour took us first to a ...

... the fist of 8 zip lines that day, each one more exhilarating (and scary) than the last! A couple of abseils (many a Bridget Jones moment) and another half hour trek later, we reached our tree top jungle camp, with an amazing view of the waterfall just in front of the balcony.

For 15 minutes it is culinary chaos while they climb over the passengers in the aisle, shouting and thrusting chicken on sticks in our faces. Meanwhile outside the bus, more women are knocking on the windows and waving their chicken snacks at us. Others are running up the road with ...

So we decided to sack off the zip lining and do the plateau ourselves. Get a local bus to Tat Lo village where the accommodation is all homestays. 25,000 for a shack ($3) for the two of us! Animals wandering everywhere, dogs, puppies, cows, calves, goats, chickens, pigs. Everyone seems to be drying chilies and monkey nuts outside their huts. Huge waterfall at the end of the village, dodgy ...
