  • Gibboning The Gibbon Experience... possibly the best thing I've done and will do on this trip!! The boarder crossing into Laos was a bit weird with the boat ride but made it across in on Posted by katie2801 in Round the world in a pair of crocs | Nov 22, 2011
  • The City of Sandalwood... and Gold!25th March 2011 The plan today was to visit the Victory Gate and the Golden Stupa, but first things first!

  • Laos - Vang Vieng 2I ultimately decided to stay here for 5 nights, the longest of any single place I've stayed in so far.

  • Laos - VientianeAfter Cambodia, I find Vientiane delightfully relaxing. Nobody is bothering you, no one wants anything from you -- such a welcome reprieve from incessant begging and hustling in Cambodia. The capital is a sleepy town, as it's often referred to, Posted by kgbgirl11 in Around the World in 90 Days | Nov 12, 2011
  • Into LaosWell a busy few days. We spent two days in Chiang Rai which we hadn't originally planned but found it was a really cool place. Much smaller than Chiang Mai but it had a lot going for it including the Posted by alnsoph in alnsoph around the world | Nov 8, 2011

  • Vang Vieng The journey wasn’t too bad but o my god the roads were horrendous. Roads with pot holes absolutely everywhere, the journey took twice as long because we had to swerve across the roads so that we didn’t get stuck. First Posted by jessicajhunt in Travel Diary | Oct 11, 2011
