Thailand to Laos via Lang Prabang - VangVien May 23 - 26

Leaving Thailand and making it to Laos was going to be hell....It was gonna take us about 2 days to travel and we had to go by bus then by slow boat on the river. So we take a bus to the border and end up staying in a guest house which wasn't too bad. We woke up early and got on a slow boat and by slow....I mean s-l-o-w...but it was good cause we got some booze and made the best of it. The boat was small but we had room to move around and stuff like that, just really nothing to do, but after 8 hours we finally make it to the mid point, Lang Pragang, where we stayed in a guest house were they shut off the electricity at 11 because everything ran on generators and they didn't want to waste the fuel keeping it on all night. We woke up and got on a boat....again, but this time it was definitely smaller then the first one and I swear it was slower. We make it to another stop off town and stay the night there and take a bus to VangVien in the morning. The ride there was really cool cause it was very mountainous and a very windy road, and these people are crazy drivers, passing other buses around blind turns where there is only room for 2 cars and no guard rails, haha good times.....



This is the double rainbow we saw on the way to VangVien....it did rain, but that did not stop the drivers from driving all crazy
