Laos โ€“ Luang Prabang Day 2


Our second full day in Luang Prabang. We’re ready for some more adventure! Today we’re going to Ban Pak Ou to see the Tam Ting Caves. We took a slow boat ride about 30km North on the Mekong River. Did I mention it was slow? Very slow and a little bit chilly we had to use a blanket. Very nice scenery along the way, but after a while we took a nap. It took about 2hrs to get there. Once we arrived, we climbed up many stairs to see the Tam Ting Shrines and caves. Very interesting and beautiful to see. Many parts were nearly pitch dark and we could’ve really used a flash light. But we managed to walk through using the light on our iPhones :) When I saw something interesting, like a shrine, I would take 2 photos with the flash camera. First photo to see what was there with the flash, and second photo to frame the shot better. When we left the caves, looking across the Mekong River I could see elephants walking about. ย We would’ve loved to go see them, but we had other plans for the day. When we got back to Luang Prabang, we cleaned up and relaxed at a nice little restaurant right along the riverside and enjoyed a few Beer Laos and watched the sunset. After that we walked around the corner to Sisavangvong Road to explore the night market. We saw many handcrafted goods along the main road, and food markets along the side roads. Another full day of adventure! ย We loved it all!

Laos – Vientiane Day Trip

We went to Vientiane, which is the capital of Laos. ย The produce is arranged in a farmer’s market style, in bundles and stacks, here and there, with an attendant nearby to help. ย Outside a small shopping area, there is a street vendor making Loti, a delicious sort of crepe, which might include a banana in the center, and topped with sweetened-condensed milk. ย I could probably eat 2 or 3 if you’d let me.
