Hi everyone!
Soz alot for being sooo long! We have been doing lots along the Mekong!
This is sadly our last blog! As we leave later today for a long slog. (back to Ennnggglland)
We spent the second day in Luang Prabang at the most beautiful waterfall ever!!!!!!!!! erm swimming was hard work though; through the current. Tuk tuk back... still love 'em! Next day....set off to Vang Vien with one aim in mind: TUBING! Got to Vang Vien...Lonnnnngggg drive for only 200 miles (ish) MASSIVE MOUNTAINS! Actually driving through clouds! We arrived during a down pour and alot later than expected so chilled out in around the bars:) Next day set off at 12 TUBING!!!!!!! Going down the river in the tube of a tractor tyre stopping off at every bar! Then hit the rope swings and giant slides into the river! Wicked fun! Mud pools...just for fun! And Buckets galore! :):):):):):):):) We both had a great time....My (matthew) hang over the next day was prettttttty bad...:) Next day Cherie decided we should see the whole of Vang Vien rather than tube again, much to my disgust! We set off on a cycle ride along a rugged road to a cave...that wasnt even a cave and paddled in a dirty river...not fun... But (cos the ride there was hellish in the heat) we got a 'tractor' back! HA crazy people! Stick an engine to anything! Next morning we started our 24 hour journey to bangkok. Laos people are rubbish at change overs. They forgot us:( At a random bus stop:( Nobody picked us up...But we managed to get the train alright!! Sleeper train...BEST INVENTION IN THE ENTIRE WORLD! Cherie got the bottom bunk :( So slept from 9 til 6! We arrived to Bangkok energized for the day! So went to MBK and spent some our spending money :) Next day we headed off to China town...we didnt quite understand it. Busy and a bit smelly... But still fun! Next day we went on another 'cultural' day. Went to a war museum and listend to the Thais slagging off the Japanease in WW2... Bit of a wierd trip...but good fun! Found the best roof top bar with wicked live music! Spent the night chilling up there enjoying the view and the music!
Today we have had a Koh San day...Shopping chilling and alllloottt of eating :) Ready for our loonnngg journey home! :( We have less than an hour and we are very very sad! But have had the most wicked trip ever! Cant wait to see you all!
See you soon!
