Laos

We have finally done something we have meant to do for many years now (7 years, to be exact) and have made it out of Thailand. Angela has been to Cambodia, but this is our first trip to another country since living in Thailand. We are 5 or 600 miles from home in Vang Vieng as I write this. The reason that got us motivated enough to leave Thailand to visit good friends in Vientiane which we have been doing for the past few days. Since this is vacation as well we thought we'd try to see other parts of the country and decided to head up North. This is a really lovely town on a river in the mountains and I'm sure my camera won't be able to capture the beauty. We plan to take a trip down the river tomorrow and explore some caves. Hope to have some pics when we get back to Thailand.
