With our calculation of days we had few days to spare before we had to head back to Luang Prabang, hence we have decided to go back to the sea site Kep near Kampot as originally planed. Departing was no problem, accept our ride has broken down, well it would not be travelling in Cambodia if we would not brake down at least once, perhaps the 4 foreigners with 7 massive backpacks on little Tuk Tuk had something to do with it..... poor men we have cause him to loose means of living ... Road to Kep was more like roller [View Full Entry]

Dolphins where are you.... Off we go, by what? - bus, no boat, no bus, OK boat and then a bus, organisation in Laos is wonder full. We went to the boarders of Cambodia where we had the chance to see the fresh-watter dolphins, we had to hang around for sometime. We saw them, although there were quite in distance, however they are so rare, we were lucky to see them at all. Next was Khon Phapheng waterfalls, the biggest by volume in South East Asia, pretty powerful and amazing, and that was a dry season. Next more watter falls.... and [View Full Entry]

PAKSE We have arrived in Pakse again in early hours of a morning, and the journey was not bad at all, VIP bus did the trick. Finding a guest house was easy as well, we had shower and had some rest. We had to plan where to go next, although the area look ideal for trecking, however me Romi with badly burn calf would not manage to do it. Decision was made next day to 4000 Islands. TUK TUK RIDE OF OUR LIFE As we have missed the early minibus to Don Knong, as result of very helpfull staff at the [View Full Entry]

Cambodia Visa We had to get up early to get our visa, rented a motorbike and off we went. Reni was the driver and Romi passenger. Successfully applied for visa and were suppose to pick it up in the afternoon. With the motorbike rented for the whole day the road were ours. Next needed to get a ticket out of here, as we did not particularly like Vientiane, got we came for and lets move. Where is the bloody bus station? In the lonely planet it said about 5 km north-east of where the map has finished.... we have however drove [View Full Entry]

VIENTIANE We have arrived in the capital at 5.30 am, absolutely shattered after 10 hours on a bus, finding a guest house this time of a morning proved to be rather hard, either they were full or not open yet, eventually we have found a guest house that was reasonable. Had shower and feel dead into a bed...... round 12 noon we have got up and decided to go to the Cambodia embassy...... We have started to walk in a direction that we have believed the embassy to be, however had suspicious feeling it might not be exactly round the corner. [View Full Entry]

KUANG SI WATERFALLS This was our 6th day in Luang Prabang and we have not done that much, hence we went to see the Kuang Si waterfalls. However as it is dry season in Lao, it was not in its full glory, but still powerful enough. We have also saw a black bears and a tiger, all of which have been saved from poachers. We had lovely swim, again it was rather refreshing and watch some of the locals throwing themselves into to water using a robe hang off a tree. Me Romi had an attempt but it was not pretty, [View Full Entry]

ELEPHANTS .... hurray... only Me Reni was bit anxious as what is going to happen to me now, I have [View Full Entry]

Even that the heat was unbearable we made ourselves to go sight seeing, well we had to as we were in here it would be a waste of a time to just sit and not do anything ( even that are coming back, but at that time we did not plan to). We went to see the Royal Palace Museum and did a lovely climb in this lovely weather up on to the Phu Si, where everyone was waiting for the sun set, so we didn't. In this heat our diet consists mainly of fruit shakes and fruit, so hopefully we [View Full Entry]
