I can just see you sopping around in the jungle, knee deep in mud. How happy you must have been. I probably would have paid money to see that. Don't be sad, need I remind you? You're in THAILAND!!

The End Well, it's been a great ride that I'm happy to say I've kept up with the whole way. It was also nice to be part of the final leg of your journey, travelling down the highway to meet back up with your mom. This was cool. Go on another trip, keep another blog, I'm looking forward to it. You put so much effort and description into these things that it feels like I've been there. Well, that's all from me. See you again soon.
Even Thai Girls Cry Sorry you didn't like the book. What was it about the prose you didn't like? I'm always looking for ways to improve my writing. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
I'm happy you finished reading the story. Prose problems or not, I think you must have found the book interesting? Yes?
Chok dee khrap.

So glad you had a good Dr.close by.... Sounds like the most uneventful and most relaxing spot for you is Thailand......You sounded pretty happy to be back there.

Flail Pretty wild you got away with it for that long, easy mistake to make but all in all you´re probably pretty lucky you found it before actually trying to cross the border
very glad you are safe I am at John & Donna`s house and had a look at your blog....sounds like you are having a good time.I miss you and worry when no one hears from you in such a long time.Take care of yourself.see you when you come home.Love Noni & Nono xoxox
Its me, I just forgot to add my name. Well I'm glad you're doing this route, I'd add more suggestions but I don't want to sound preachy... you'll figure it out. Actually no, I feel like rambling. When you go to Luang Prabang, go to the waterfall. I can't remember what its called, but its so cool. You'll know which one it is. Also, climb up to the wat on the hill in the middle of town. After Luang Prabang, if you have time, try to go to a neighbouring village around the city. Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng are the only really touristy places in Laos, its nice to get off the beaten path even a little bit.... we went to this place called Nong Kiauw because some people we met were going, its a boat ride (or bus) from L Prabang, really beautiful. We also went to the south of Laos, to the 4000 islands (which is the part of the Mekong on the Cambodian border with the pink dolphins, although we didn't see any of those), and we rented a motorbike and drove around rural Laos in this area called the Bolovan Plateau. It was amazing, one of the best days of my trip. But I'd forget it, going to the south would involve a lot of back tracking, or maybe even going back through Cambodia to get out of there. Its a shame it leaves you so in the middle of nowhere. Oh well. Enjoy Laos! Glad you went
So good to have you back Glad you are back into blogg`n .....We enjoy reading about what you are up to. you may have to think about writing a book.....I know it would be a good one.........glad you are having a blast.........hope to hear from you soon....stay safe.......Love Dad & Donna xox
