• Thakhek loop

    November 7, 2022 in Laos ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F

    Finished the Thakhek loop yesterday. Long trip, but well worth it. We drove over 500 kilometers on a Honda Click scooter. Visited at least 6 caves. Two with a boat ride and one we swam inside. Hiked 3 trails. Saw a newborn water Buffalo. Visited countless local villages. Meeting many locals. Got invited by a teacher to visit his school because the kids there never get to talk to a foreigner. Beautiful landscapes, scary trucks and drivers and many potholes and rough roads. But the best part of all was all the kids waving and yelling hello to us as we passed. Plus we didn't crash once.
    Today a grueling 7+ hour bus ride
