Luang Prabang

Udon Thani, Thai-Lao border, Vientianne, overnight bus to Luang Prabang.

Sunrise over the Mekong...

...Boat trip to see the Buddha Cave...



...to see the Buddhas...

 ...then wandered around town...

 ...and explored all the alleys and hidden stores...

...watched the monklets repairing the temple roof...

 ...and relaxing after a hard day...

 ...back over a great rickety old moto and pedestrian bridge...

...just in time to catch a moon rise over one of the hilltop temples...

...now to shake it up a bit we're off to Phonsavan on the slightly less travelled trail east into Lao
