Shabbat Shalom! We are now in Vang Vieng- a small beautiful town about 4 hours north to Vian Tien. The trip was fun- 4 hours in horrible heat, no air conditioning, full of sweaty people.... splendid. But it's a very very nice road.
We are staying all four of us in a nice bungalow right down the Sam Xong riverside, so we have great view. I'm dying to upload photos but in this damn continent finding a cooperating computer is impossible- the ones that do have USB connections do not support them.
Today we rented two motorbikes and went exploring- I cannot begin to describe exactly how pretty the country side is- trees, mountains, river, creeks, fields and villages. The people here are so poor, but their lives are priceless, which to me is nothing but amazing.
Just as we were heading back the sky turned cloudy and as we sat down for lunch it started pouring outside.
Funny thing- Vang Vieng is more of a village than a town, and it's very touristic- they have 2 bar/restaurants that have "Friends" on 24/7. TWO! and they are across to each other. To make things better, there is also a "Simpsons" bar.....so that's what we've been doing to avoid the rain. How odd..
So that's it for now....
