hello... today i just walked around vientiane before we depart at 3 pm for bangkok. it's funny, everyone is afraid of spending money here, so i tend to go out on my own alot. guess that's the difference of being in uni versus the love of a credit card.. ha ha. in all honesty though.. i cashed 10 USd today, ate like a queen andhave money to spare... i think the rest of the people on my trip budgeted 5 lbs per day...i couldn't do it.. i like food too too much.
anyhoo, thepics above are from bottom to top.. me at the palace in luang prabang, the girls from england and i at our hotel in vanvieng (yes i am that much taller then all the brits here), various wats and stupas around the city, the champde elysee's of SE Asia, and the golden stupa (national monument) in vientiene.
i walk everywhere.. stephen suggested getting atuk tuk to get to themonument, and i am like whatev, this is just a short jaunt, and sure enough, i walked there and back in an hour..I thenwent back to that same restaurant we went to last night, had another superb meal and am enjoying the air con of the internet ;p.
So.. recall my legs.. and how i burned them.. well i have experienced something new as a result. normally when I burn, i blister and peel no biggie..well, because it is so frickin' hot andhumid, my blisters of full of sweat and i literally have over 1 thousand tiny little sweat bubbles all the way down my leg.. i look like a scaly frog. i run my nail over them, and they all pop and the liquid drains out.. disgusted yet? i am.
Anyhoo... hope you enjoy the photos.
Cheers!
