 		 These kids harassed visitors to the caves, trying to get them to buy a caged bird to release. I asked them if I could take a photo and they happily posed. But a few moments later,they demanded money for the photo. I gave them peanuts. I'm still struggling with the idea of helping these impoverished villagers by giving them what to me is so little money. But if foreigners give them money, does this promote a begging lifestyle?: by jlessing, Views[12]

In Luang Prabang there is a midnight curfew when everyone must be back in their home or the place where they are registered to sleep. As a result, all bars, restaurants, etc. close at 11:30. However, there is one place that stays open (the police are more relaxed about the curfew with tourists)...BOWLING! : by jlessing, Views[9]
