Luang Prabang

We arrived in Luang Prabang after two days of travel on the "slow boat." We didn't have hotel reservations, thinking we would find a place when we got here. There was one problem. For some crazy reason, our cell phones would not connect to a network. We have not had any problems before this, so this was a bit of a surprise. We followed a young couple we met on the boat hoping to rent a room at the same location they were staying at, but on the way, we found a place we liked.
Luang prabang is a very neat town with a lot of people traveling through. The next day, we hiked up Phu Si for the view and released some finches for a Bhudist blessing. Later, we went to see the Royal Ballet perform and then shopped at the night market. Tomorrow, we are off to the capital.Les mer
