Vientiane






The capital city of Lao PDR, a small place but also enough to keep you busy for a few days, The victory arch as yet unfinished but from this distance you cant really tell and a cool pic with the refection from the fountain. Also a pic the Buddah park about 25K away from the city. getting a local bus from the station in front of the morning market is by far the bast way to get there and the cheapest. On the way out of town going to Vang Vieng, there was a wee bit of drama a truck had left the road and ended up at the bottom. Locals had started to salvage what they could from the wreck. Don't know if the guy with the gun over his back was police/ army or private militia eith way you don't wana piss him off. The rest of the drive proved uneventful, with the exception of a few on-coming trucks in the middle of the road.
