On the morning of the 22nd November, we arrived early in the morning at a travel agent in Vientiane to take a bus the three and half hour drive north to the town of Vang Vieng. We were expecting to have a smaller vehicle pick us up and take us to a much larger bus. This is what the travel agent explained to us and it would seem that every one that boarded the smaller van was told a similar story by their travel agent. A larger bus never materialized for us. Although this did create some confusion amongst the passengers, it actually worked out quite well since the road between Vientiane and Vang Vieng is very bumpy and twisty. The smaller van did a remarkably good job of getting us from point A to B although slightly more crowded then was expected. The air conditioning worked and the driver stayed on the road!

Following are a couple photos of the bus, great $10 dollar room, etc.
