Back to Luang Prabang

Rained hard last night, until about 6:00AM, then stopped.

We got up about 7:00, had breakfast, then went to the boat landing and bought tickets back to Nong Khiaw. Went back to the guest house, got our stuff, and waited at the rivers edge, until somebody told us to get into a boat. A lot of falang ditching Muang Ngoi today, the boat was packed full.

Once at Nong Khiaw, we got the bus back to Luang Prabang. The bus (truck) was packed as well. It's a cool and dreary day today, a good day to travel. I had to sit in the middle of the truck bed, in a plasic lawn chair, all the cushy seats were taken.

We got back to Luang Prabang about 2:30, and took a tuk-tuk to our old guest house, the Vong Vichith, and had a hot shower, the first shower in 4 days!!

We headed downtown, had supper, then the internet.

Mom, don't be such a worry wart about us!!!

Tomorrow we head to Vang Vieng, there's been lots of shootings on that road in the past few weeks. Apparently they're sending armed soldier's on all the busses on that route now, but we'll see if that's just a rumour tomorrow.
