Day 46/ 46. den (19.03.2008)

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 more than that and after while we have realised that it is not the way we were heading... luckily for us some local guy also on motorbike asked us where we going,when we told him bus station, he kindly directed us the right way...
On the search of bus station I Romi became rather hungry and asked my driver ( Reni) to pull over so I can buy a baguette, only later to wish I have rather starved, as when I have got of the bike I have obtained "Thai tattoo" - burn by hot exhaust - nick name given by fellow travelers ... ouch... f... ouch.
Eventually we found the bus station and bought a VIP ticket to Pakse.

PHATHA LUANG ( most important monument in Laos)
As we were pirates of the road, we have drove around the streets and went to see Phatha Luang -golden thing as it is something you ought to see if you are in the capital.... when we were in side Me Reni almost burst into tears, not because of the architecture, however my camera did not work and it appeared that I have lost all of the photos.... disaster, especially as Romi already lost hers due to corruption of a memory stick.. Sadden by the horrible event we had not fancied to go anywhere else and went back.

Not all lost...
We have went into a Internet place to try to figure out what has happened with Reni's camera. The memory card had a virus on it... one of the guys who worked there have managed to burn the photos on a disk and get rid of the virus on the card. ( However a we have found out later, the CD has a virus on and we can not do anything with the photos- hence lack of photos on net).



Kambodcke viza
Musely jsme zase brzy vstavat, pronajaly jsme si motorku a sly jsme na to. Renca ridic a Romca pasazer.
Podarilo se nam bez problemu podat zadost o viza a mely jsme si je vyzvednout odpolodne. S pronajatou motorkou, cesty byly nase.
Dalsi vec co potrebujeme jsou lisky odsud pryc, protoze na nas Vientiane nejak velmi nezapusobila, mame to proc jsme prijely, takze je cas odjet.

Kde je dohaje ten autobusak?
V Lonely planet je receno, ze je asi 5km na severo jih od bodu, kde ta mapka konci... jenze my jsme jely ohodne dale, za chvily nam doslo, ze asi jedeme spatnym smerem... nastesti nam jeden domorodec, take na motorce, poradil a nasmeroval nas spravne...
V patrani po autobusaku, jsem Ja Romca dostala hlad a zeptala se ridice (Renci) zda by mohla nekde zastavit, abych si koupila bagetu. Jen pozdeji jsme toho litovala a radsi bych umrela hlady, protoze pri zesedani z motorky jsme obdrzela "Thajske tattoo" - spalenina o vyfuk, jak tomu ostatni baturkari rikaji... auvajs... k.... auvajs.
Nakonec jsme autobusak nasly a koupily si VIP listky do Pakse.

PHATHA LUANG (nejdulezitejsi monument v Laosu)
Jako pirati silnic, jsme jezdily po ulicich Vientiane a jely jsme se podivat na Phatha Luang - zlata vec, coz by pry kazdy mel videt kdyz je v hlavnim meste... kdyz jsme vesli do vnitr ja Renca jsme se malem rozplakala, ne kvuli te architekrure, ale muj fofak prestal fungovat a vypadalo to, ze jsme ztratila veskere fotky... tragedie, kort kdyz Romca uz prisla o sve, kvuli porouchane flashce... smutne z teto tragedie jsme nemely naladu uz nikam jinam a sly jsme zpet.


Neni vse ztraceno...
Sly jsme na internet, abychom prisly na to co se stalo s Rencinim fotakem. Pametova karta mela virus... jednomu z hochu co tam pracuje se podarilo vypalit fotky na CD a odvirovat kartu. ( Bohuzel pozdeji jsme prisly na to, ze CD ma virus a je nepouzitelne, proto mame na netu malo fotek)
