    Luang Prabang Laos

    14–17 ene., Laos ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    Came here after 4 flights thru ORD and Tokyo and Bangkok 48hrs in planes and long layovers. Stayed at Satri House and old French style villa with wonderful gardens. First day we climbed Phousi mnt to see the sunset and visited the night market. Did a city tour the 3rd day and a waterfall in yhe afternoon.
    Prabank is the name of the first Buddha brought to Laos by a Sri Lankan Queen the 14th century and Luang Prabang is the holy city of Laos. The whole city is a Unesco world heritage site because of its french/Laos wooden style buildings. Only 90000 people but very touristy. Also hazy because of the many fire they use for cooking and to burn leaves in the countryside    Leer más

    Hanoi Vietnam

    17–19 ene., Vietnam ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

    Flew here from Laos. Vietnam visa was messed up with the wrong passport number and the Laos airline official help me get a fast 2nd visa for an extra $195
    Stayed at the Intercontinental WestLake hotel which has buildings on the water connected with walkways. Lunch at KOTO restaurant which trains disadvantaged youth.
    Hanoi is very polluted and has the worst brown/Grey haze I ve seen. Very chaotic city, overcrowded, garbage everywhere. Too many cars on narrow roads with motorcycles everywhere. Impossible to walk. It's a week before their new year on the Chinese calendar and they are selling peach trees and branches everywhere, like our Xmas trees. Also kumquat trees but with round kumquat.
    We went downtown buy I cut my tour short after lunch because the city is so overcrowded. Opted to walk around Westlake which is 13km. It took me 4hrs because of a festival in the far site of the lake diverted me. There were people on motorcycles carrying trees, tvs and anything you can think of.
    Awful to walk around and place to visit    Leer más

    Mai Chau and Pu Luong NP

    19–20 ene., Vietnam ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    Drove from the chaos of Hanoi to Pu Luong NP where we had a wonderful lunch at an open air restaurant. The fish was local and breaded with a nut mixture that had a butter,lime and passion fruit sauce. Then we walked around the rice fields and drove to Mai Chau at the Mai Chau lodge. What a wonderful oasis this hotel was. They had a local dance show every night at 830 by the pool. Their basil margarita was excellent.
    My suite had a porch overlooking the rice fields with bamboo lounge chairs outside. The bathtub was round and made of wood. It also had a private pool at the lower level below the porch.
    The next day I had a full body massage that costed $15.90 in local money.    Leer más
