  • Vientiane Hiya, Hope everyone's okay... We arrived in Vientiane yesterday evening and are leaving for Lak Sao tomorrow! Lak Sao borders with Vietnam so we'll be crossing into Vietnam in a few days which we're really looking forward to. Laos is Posted by Chrissy03 in Chrissy and Ashley's Trip | Apr 29, 2009
  • Elephants, Waterfalls and Slow Boats Hey All, I'm not as good at keeping this up anymore, now that i'm not learning as much about the culture of the areas i've been in, I'm not as inspired to write. In the past couple of days I Posted by KelseyH in SE Asia Adventure | Apr 26, 2009
  • Luang Prabang Hey everybody. We're now in Laos! I did just write quite an essay about what we've been up to the last few days but the computer timed me out even though i'd bought a new ticket and everything went! Not happy. We're Posted by Chrissy03 in Chrissy and Ashley's Trip | Apr 26, 2009
  • Day 50 - Last Of Laos Friday we were woken up nice & early at 7am to make sure we didn't miss our 7.45am bu out of the hellhole. It cost 28,000 kip for our bus tickets to Muang Khua & the journey was our scariest yet. Posted by Eemail2004 in Our Great Adventure | Apr 22, 2009
  • Day 46 - 49 - Sun, Storms & Sticky Rice Monday we were awoken by loud music & voices at 6.45am but couldn't tell if it was coming from another room or outside.

  • Day 45 - Trying To Escape Sunday we got up at 9am &, finding few other places open ate at Sinphet Restaurant again complete with our friendly, happy waitress.

  • Laos II - Vang Vieng, Vientiane e a chegada ao Vietname Depois de ouvirmos imensas opinioes positivas sobre Vang Vieng, decidimos ir visita-la. A maior atraccao desta vila e o "tubbing", que e suposto ser fora do normal. Apanhamos uma carrinha de Luang Prabang ate Vang Vieng... talvez uma das mais Posted by Themoffats in As Aventuras da Adriana e do Jonathan | Apr 12, 2009
  • Day 43 - Pak Beng Friday we were woken up by the maid who announced that our boat to Huay Xai left in 30 minutes. This didn't matter to us as we had decided to stay the day & leave at the weekend. I paid Posted by Eemail2004 in Our Great Adventure | Apr 18, 2009

  • Day 39-41 - Hangin in Luang Prabang Monday we were up at 8.30am to pack & say goodbye to Jacek, before being picked up by minibus to a VIP Bus parked on the outskirts of town. We were forced to wait another hour before the bus set Posted by Eemail2004 in Our Great Adventure | Apr 5, 2009
  • Laos I - Luang Prabang Laos nao era um pais que no inicio tinhamos decidido visitar. Sabiamos que era um pais bastante recomendado, mas se queriamos ir visitar a Malasia e Singapura nao teriamos tempo para ir a Laos. Mesmo assim, arriscamos, e chegamos a Posted by Themoffats in As Aventuras da Adriana e do Jonathan | Apr 11, 2009
  • The 'slow boat' along the mighty Mekong The slow boat is a two day cruise down the Mekong River with an overnight stop.

  • Day 32-35 - Viva La Vientiane Monday we woke up at 8.30am & packed our stuff, not willing to spend another night in the expensive, poor quality place we had had to reluctantly book. We had a cheap breakfast of eggs & hot drinks at Nok Noy Posted by Eemail2004 in Our Great Adventure | Mar 28, 2009
  • Day 31 - Friendship to Laos Sunday I awoke unsurprisingly dog-rough. We had breakfast at Apple's Place again at 69BT each & went for a bikeride till lunchtime.

  • Luang Prabang, Plain of Jars and Vieng Xai Our time in Luang Prabang involved mainly spending too much money.

  • Laos: Wrap-Up Our time in Laos has ended. Unfortunately, between Kevin coming down sick, then Amy getting sick, and our timidness to leave the main areas due to malaria risk, our time in Laos was probably not as thorough as it Posted by amyandkev in Amy & Kev's Excellent Adventure | Mar 2, 2009
