So today we did some touring aroudn the bolovens plateau, serioulsy one of the poorest of the region...i took too many picture leaving my camera with no battery...I love the lao houses, their style is really cool.....The driving thechnique is also intresting..you drive through the middle of the road and you pass the trucks and busses in curves with no visibility. You just have to press the horn to let anybody know coming in the opposite direction that they should move! In the road you see cows chickewns, goats and pigs...Just reduce your speed and press the horn if they dont move, that is the chnique.


Anyways.... wish i coul.d upload more but computer is slow.

Well so i wanted to put some pictures up...lets see if you can at least see a
Yesturday trying to get the tuck tuck on the ferry......

Us and our taditional fruit shakes....

100 Unique Visitors since June..woho! Thanks for reading the bullshit that i type! And Chob Chai for the comments!

SABAIDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!(hello!)

Im officially the person who has taken the most pictures 877 of the four of us. I think some of you arent going to be suprised.... i mainly go crazy when i meet people and kids and start taking pictures. I have a lot of memory and im not taking it with the highest resolution so im having lots of fun with my camera...just dreaming of getting a better one soon.Today we went to CHampasak and from there we went to Wat Phou which is also a UNESCO site..it is ruins of a "temple"and its very famous..we went there by boat. And when i mean boat i mean something made out of wood that when someone would move a bit it would move from side to side. I didnt really like it,although i enjoyed the views for the 1.30 hour ride. We then took a tuck tuck to wat phou...on the way back we also had to take a tuck tuck all the way to paxe..That meant we had to cross the river. We did that with a ferry. Which i dont even know how to describe. THe feery had ppl and trucks and cars on it, and hmm it was made out of wood and a steering wheel and some chains....Thanks god that we were just going to the other side. As our tuck tuck tried to get on the ferry it ended up with the wheel stuck ont he water. It seemed that it was uanble to put the wheel on the wood between teh land and the boat. So there you have didac and a bunch of people pulling the tuck tuck backwards. FInally the engine started again and they put the tuck tuck in that "ferry"...Tommorrow we are going on a tour around this area. As all tours this one will leave early in the mornign. I dont think we have ever woken up earlier than 8am and we dont go to slee to early either...Im looking forwards to twommorrow as seeing villages involves seeing people which involves picture time!! :)

Chob Chai for reading and byebye!!

Luang Parabang

I really liked Luang Parabang and its monks walking up and down the city constantly. The place was quite small and we kept bumping into the same tourists over and over and over...quite funny. The polish group that came with us from Vang Vieng to Luang Parabang we met them every single corner of the city. The city is part of UNESCO and its quite charming with two rivers going around it and surrounded by mountains. You can see monks everywhere and at 5.30 in the morning they go through the city and ppl give them rice...really nice thing to see. IN the afternoon there are some craft markets. Me and didac bought pants there..pants taht serioulsy look and when compared are much bigger than the ones i generally wear. And yet they dont really fit me...Strange!With didac i climbed up the mountain and we saw some nice view of the city and the river. We then met a monk and we were trying to ask him a question but he didnt really understand us so he ended up opening up a temple just for us. Really coool! The ppl here are so calm,relax. Its as if they have been stuck in a moment. We had dinner by the river and were able to catch the last open restaruant..yeah!Eating at spanish time didnt really work! Miquel and Didac also rented a bike to go aroudn the city..my legs were still hurting me from the trekkign so i decided against it...Instead i just fell asleep....Seeing how pressed we were for time we decided to head to the south of Laos to Pakse in an epic 22 hour journy. First Luang Parabang to Vientiane was an 9 hour ride. Were we once again met some true idiots. The people behind me didnt want to open the window. Of course there was no AC as promised...so after 6 hours and two tries by Anna to open our window i got pissed of. I went up to the guy behind me and told him i watned to open teh window. If they were behind and didnt like the air we could change sits. Oh,turns out he didnt understand..fine i told him in french. Now he needed a better excuse..and he found one. He claimed that if we changed sits we would crash cuz he was supersticious. Really pissed off i finally got to change sits when we reached the next city and someone left the bus, leaving two empty sits in the bus by a window!Alas!.We had already been 6 hours with no air. We then reached Vientianne and had to wait 3 hours and swtich bus but we got a super cool VIP bus with super conffy chairs! Unfortunately we also got someone who wouldnt shut up and who thoguth the army was a great place to go to and socialize and have parties. Seriously some ppl in this trip that come on our busses are driving me nuts! ANd thy tend to always be from Israel..is this a coincidence?? Finally met an entire group of catalan ppl ...all in luang parabang!
