We went for a bike ride around Vientiane starting around 9 in the morning until 12 pm. Stopping off at some temples to see some Buddhas, lots of Buddhas (photos are coming). It was ridiculously hot outside and I forgot to put sunscreen on, so my arms got pretty badly burnt.
After the bike ride, we returned to the hotel to check out then walked to a bakery and I had a banana shake and a spinach croissant. We then went back to the hotel and loaded into the bus, since we had a four hour long drive to Vang Vieng.
At the pit stop, it unfortunately only had Asian toilets, no western ones. So I quickly peed and got out of there as fast as I possibly could. The tour guides were sitting at a table, and as we approached them we saw this massive bug. The guys joking acted like they were going to throw the bug onto us girls. At one point when I was taking out my phone to take a photo of the bug, Mark threw a wrapper at me and for some reason thought it was the bug and panicked and tossed my phone away from me. But it didn't break. Ha
Once we arrived to Vang Vieng, we took a walk by the river then went for dinner. Half way through our meal we had a cat show up. the cat just kept meowing and looking for food. The tour guide pushed him down from our table but the cat came back. He kept meowing and looking sad and hungry. Eventually the tour guide had enough of the cat and placed him in the washroom so he wouldnt be able to come back and harass us again and try to steal our food. The animals are cute here but sadly you cant trust them since they are probably unclean.
On the way back to the hotel three of us purchased pancakes. I purchased a banana, Nutella, coconut pancake, it was tasty but it was way to big for me to finish it.
I find it strange how Asians want to be white. Some of the women make sure to cover up while on their bikes, even making sure their hands are protected. They also have skin whitening products. And the tv and movie stars are very white, like it is almost impossible to tell that they are Asian. I just find it odd.

Hulk Sounds like Mark is a nice guy. That would have been funny to see. At least the phone is still alive. Seems like their portions are pretty big there
