Big boat

Today we crossed the mighty Mekong river to Laos. Staying in Huai Xuai a small and quiet border town. Very beautiful landscape with the mighty Mekong flowing down surrounded by hills and mountains. A little bit colder than Bangkok which is a relief. From here we will take a two day boat trip to Luang Prabang in the middle of Laos.

The Bangok stay was very nice. We took a traditional Tuk Tuk tour on Big Buddha day visiting a number of temples. A Tuk Tuk is a great way to get around, but of course you have to do the obligatory stops at tailors and travel agents, who always get sour when you do not end up buying anything. But, sincerely, I am about to enter the jungle, why, why, should I want to bring a suit.

I tried, but this computer just refuses to upload my pictures.
