         		 We visited the organic farm in Vang Vieng. They are well known for their mulberry trees, so we ate mulberry pancakes,fried mulberry leaves and drank mulberry green tea. This farm is very much community oriented, and raises money for community projects like maintaining a school bus that can get many of the local children to school.: by jlessing, Views[308]
         		 This was the view from the toilets at a rest stop. It is hard to explain the clouds in Laos. They are full and everywhere.: by jlessing, Views[252]

         		 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[255]

         		 This cave is filled with small Buddha statues donated by local villagers. The Buddhas are in many different poses;each pose stands for something different. I personally like the meditation pose and the stopping the bad (demons) pose.: by jlessing, Views[234]

         		 A temple outside of Luang Prabang. Everything surrounding this temple is very basic (dirt,bamboo, etc.). I think this contrast makes the temples even more striking.: by jlessing, Views[210]

    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[610]
