Good morning guys. So, today we are saying goodbye to
Tailand which is here and hello to Laos which is over there.
but to get there, we got to cross the river, Mekong river, on one
of these boats. We are just awkwardly loading them up with our
luggage, then we are going to be on our way to Laos.
Everyone say I'm On A Boat. I'm on a boat. See you in Laos.
So now that we are in Laos, we boarded our canal boat, I guess
that is what they call it, because we are going to go cruise along
Mekong River.
So day one of cruising down the Mekong River is over and we
have stopped at our overnight stay, which is pretty much in this
little village in Pakbeng. This is very, very cool. It is part of the
village on the Mekong river. Awesome.
So, the Pak Ou caves used for religion, when the population
believed that the spirits of the natives and people believed that
the caves was a place of the river spirit. And was watching
local people below around 18th century.
Good job boys.
I love how we are the cheering squad.
We are going to go on a bike tour of Luang Prabang. I am
excited for this. I am going to attempt to vlog while I am biking,
That will be interesting. You'll see, how that will turn out.
On your marks, get set, go, go , go. No, don't go, there is traffic.
Hi guys. I am going to try not to crash into anything.
This isn't that bad, once you get used to it. I mean holding the
camera, I've been biking before. It's rush hour.
Having fun? Yes, I sure am.
This is the Wat Xieng Thong. The temple of the golden city.
The temple is the centre of religion of the buddhist people, so
we come to the temple anytime we want. The temple is where
we come to be happy, when we are not happy, bring flowers,
food, we feed the monks and forgiveness from the buddha.
Ready for a shot glass. They are 5000 Kips.
There is snakes in that whiskey. There is more than snakes,
centipedes, scorpions, geckos. The Laos whiskey basically is
50% alcohol.
Do not smell it.
One, two, three, bottoms up, cheers.
That was bad.That was really gross.
