Still chilling in Laos - been up north with Christian (guy I met on train and hung out with) and his friends. We did typically touristy stuff - tubing in Vang Vieng, waterfalls etc in Luang Prabang. Still good fun though.

I flew back to Vientiane, and now gonna head south. Flew Lao Airlines back to Vientiane - it was a half hour flight or a 10 hour bus ride. no brainer really. was relieved to find I was on a French made plane and not a dodgy chinese one however. apparently the bus tonight has flat beds - sounds like a cheeky ruse to get people to take it to me. we shall see.
