So, we're exactly halfway through our 100 days in Southeast Asia. Tonight, we celebrated with a little Lao whiskey and some beer. Oh, was that ever nice!
We're in Luang Prabang, relaxing in the heat and enjoying all that this little town has to offer. It's quite touristic, but has a very quaint and classy feel. We very much like it. There's a really extensive night market here and many, many, many temples to see in such a small land area. Our six-hour long boat ride from Nong Khiaw to here on the Nam Ou River yesterday was not without its share of exciting moments. Due to low water levels, we had to get off and take a tuk-tuk for 15 minutes and re-board further down the river. We then encountered very shallow water that couldn't carry our weight, so most of us got out in the middle of the river and helped maneuver the boat to deeper waters. Oh, what fun!
The speed of the Internet systems isn't wonderful, so we've had trouble uploading photos to the blog. We'll keep trying so we can share some of the best with you.
