-Got a boat ticket for 100,000 kip to go up to Nong Khiew, 7 hour ride, upriver from the Mekong to the Nam Ou River.
-Met a nice German kid and a retired Special Ed teacher from New York. Also on the boat were four Polish people who were glued to their cameras, every Lao fisherman and local unfortunate enough to be in the path of our boat was extensively photographed, it was sort of embarassing. rediculous to see four people all taking pictures of the same dude on a boat. admittedly the boat ride was beautiful, but better to see with yr eyes then through a lense. i have a few pictures though:
