90 Days - rapid and on a rapid

90 days have passed rapidly. One strange thing is that there are effectively no weekends, and days of the week have also lost meaning .
There have been till we reached Laos almost no, do-nothing days. But here we have managed two, woohoo. Well, in reality, we did do something today, but it was [mostly] very easy, very chilled, and very beautiful. We floated about 10km down the Nam Song river on inner tubes of tractor tyres ( Flo and me) and yellow floatation rings ( kids).

There were 4 sets of rapids en route, but as long as you kept your bum up, there was little risk of injury.

Also en route was a nice little riverside bar, where I was forced to drink a cold Lao beer. Same torture at the end of the ride. 🍺

After that I went to the train station, and a miracle occurred, ( one that I expected), namely that there were plenty tickets for our train in two days, and the price at face value for all was $29, whereas the hotel offered to buy the tickets on the secondary market for $71 because the train was full. On the last train with the same story, the entire 1st class was empty, not that we travel 1st class, but we could have for the price we paid the ticket touts.もっと詳しく
