Luang Prabang - Laos
We arrived in Luang Prabang, Laos on February 19/20, later in the day after flying there from Hanoi. So, you can tell we have not been doing a very good job in keeping our blog updated....just so much to see and do every day. We stayed a hotel called Villa Maydou and ventured out on our own on the 20th. We then did a big tour up the Mekong river on the 21st to visit Pak Ou Caves followed by a drive to see the Kuang Si Waterfalls. Hope you enjoy the pictures. The Mekong river with it's long boats down the embankment. There are many boats for both tourists and local use. The river runs along one side of the town. You can see the French Colonial influence everywhere. The local ferry taking locals and vehicles across the Mekong River. We could not resist taking a picture of the bamboo scafolding for our son in law, who is a Scaffolder in Canada, enjoy Dave. One day shy of six weeks since Naomi's knee surgery - Can she do it? Yes
