(Kev) Vang Vieng is a backpackers' paradise. The town is surrounded with mountains and a river runs right through the heart of it. Hot sun, cool water, and plenty of good cold refreshment along the way. There is stop points every couple minutes along the river, which all call out Beer Lao, Beer Lao...we were probably the only three people on the river who weren't drinkin...but it was a lot of fun...

Dustin's enthusiasm on the 12 hour boat ride was ecstatic.

Kevin chases franticly after the cockroach in the bottom right corner of the photo. After 20 seconds, he corners and kills the beast.

This monsoon lasted all night, which made the river great the next day for tubing.

Two studs and a waterfall.

Kev says it's on of the best waterfalls he's seen...and he's practically been to every one in SE Asia.

Usually these guys drive a hard bargain, thankfully we were only asking about the ferry schedule.

Don't go chasing waterfalls

So .... I just got out of a statistics final, but don't think that I'm not happy that you're RELAXING. ggggrrrrrrr. By the way, I'm making a list of all of my favourite pictures and then you two are taking me there. I REALLY like the Jungle Massage one, so make sure you know how to get back there when the times comes.
