Only 1 day in Vientiane but Laos is slow and small compared to Vietnam and even Cambodia. Saw lots of temples. Had a great meal at restaurant called Makphet which aims to help street children. The food was superb. Also had a traditional Baci ceremony ... Read more >

There are people who whinge about a 6-hour flight to Europe. I wonder what they would say about our 11-hour bus ride from Vientiane to Luang Prabang. It can’t be much more than 350 km but I estimate several thousand hairpin curves and countless ... Read more >

Border crossing from Vietnam to Laos at Bo Y was smooth. The Vietnamese guard shouted 'Go! Go to Laos!' good-naturedly. I think he was envious because suddenly the roads were questionable but the people were the calmest, least venal on the planet. Result! ... Read more >

Everyone was excited about the “Happy Face” in the sky last night, two planets (Jupiter and Venus?) and the waning moon. Perhaps it was a sign of good things to come. Or maybe just the heavens laughing at us. It was odd to fly once more. ... Read more >

We checked out of Mama Lao’s guesthouse and soon realised that we didn’t have enough money to get off the island. There are no ATM’s here, and after trying to exchange all the foreign currency we had, we still didn’t have enough! Fortunately, we bumped ... Read more >

Explored the island on the bikes again……if I’m paying $25 US then I don’t intend to leave it stationery! Saw some amazing waterfalls (Tat Samphamit) where the waters crash over the over rocky limestone rocks that blocks its way. (Trying to put ... Read more >

To be honest....in a hammock, in a hut, in a rice field, wasn’t the best nights sleep I’ve ever had. So in the early hours we got our stuff together and continued our route to Pakse (once the ignition was fixed on Tim’s bike) Once in Pakse, ... Read more >

After little sleep we set off in the early hours. A beautiful start to the day....riding south with the sun coming over the hills. After what was probably no more than two hours in the jungle, Tim got another puncture. ****! We had no choice ... Read more >
