It was a long winding journey over the mountains from Vang Vieng to Luang Prabang but the scenary was absolutly stunning for the whole 6 hours but was pleased to make it one piece as our minibus driver thought he was racing a rally over the mountain passes! Luang Prabang is a lovely town with a fab night market and good restaurants. In the middle of town is a sacred hill which we climbed for fab views and a good warm up for our one day Trek we'd booked for today. After our last experience trekking we werent sure if we would be able to manage a whole day but it all went pretty smoothly until Katie got a leech on her foot, you can imagine the drama! We visited a minority village with two different tribes, walked around farming and hunting land and had a Laos lunch in the forest. Finished the trek with a well needed dip and clean off at the waterfall. Off to the Thailand border town tomorrow which takes two days by slow boat. Will let you know when we make it!
