Vang Vieng Experiance - Day One We have just finished day one of our two day trekking tour in Vang Vieng. It's been fun, humorous, hot and tiring! We checked out of our guest house early this morning and went for breakfast. As soon as we made our order Chris ran out to an ATM to get some cash so we could pay for the meal. He disappeared for quite a while so I knew there was something wrong. After about twenty minutes he finally came back but with no money! The...

Sunday Roast Night. As you can probably guess, we just chilled out today.

We checked out the town today, it's not how we expected. It's more built up, especially after passing all the rural country side on the ...

Dust? Anybody, Anybody, Dust? Ah the sleeper train, it was so surprisingly comfy that we both had a really good sleep! The rocking and the rattling of the train was actually quite soothing and being on the top bunk made us feel like we were in little cubby holes tucked away from everyone else. Chris felt a little chilly though because the air-con was switched on and he chose not to wear a jumper. He still slept well though. I was clever and wore my long sleeve t...
