| On my way to Vientiane, I passed the mountains of Vang Vieng, where I did not go because I had no desire to sit in a tube and get drunk. |
 |
| Welcome to the Sketch Motel. Of course I roomed with 2 girls, and we never exchanged names, but had dinner and kept running into each other. 555 (That's Thai for HA HA HA) |
 |
| I laughed because I could touch the roof of the bus without even standing on my tippy toes. The Laotians laughed too. |
 |
| Buddha Park, the same sculptor who later created Sala Kaew Ku in Nong Khai. He (Luang Pu Bunleua Surirat) fled Laos after the Communists took over. |
 |
| Buddha Park |
 |
| Look at his face!! |
 |
| Nong Khai on the other side! Soooo close to Thailand =) |
 |
| I liked their dancey warrior poses. |
 |
| The SE Asian countries Ive been in are reeeally good at providing free ways of keeping their people fit.... |
 |
| ...and their tourists. |
 |
| Wat Sri Saket |
 |
| Oh, Buddha. Wat Sri Saket has 10,136 Buddha statues. |
 |
| Love. |
 |
| So cool. |
 |
| Built from stolen concrete meant for a new airplane runway (given to Laos by the US during the Secret War). Patuxai. |
 |
| Beautiful, no? |
 |
| Pha That Luang. |
 |
| It was closed. |
 |
| Monk Seng. I gave him my email, uh ohz! |
 |
| Then I did this at Wat Sok Pa Luang: for 50,000 kip (just over 6 dollars) I drank green tea by the bucketful, sat in a wonderful herbal sauna, and got a one hour massage. |
 |
| Oh right, my neighbors had wild, loud, crazy sex (the lady had 3 orgasms one night within an hour!). I was very happy for them, but I could not sleep seeing as all the windows faced into the hallway and theirs faced mine. |
 |
| Oy, and I had soyyyy milk. REAL soy milk. It was hot and delicious, and I really want more. |
 |
| Haw Pha Kaeo |
