Yeahhhh, much better. Since we’re not sick and no longer on a bad bus ride, we’re happy without doing anything. Luckily Vientienne is turning out quite nice. The capital city has been a fun relief of the last week. We got a decent hostel in a good location and the city is easily explored by foot and bicycle although quite large. There’s a nice walkway down by the Mekong River here as well, even went jogging some here. We spent 3 days exploring some impressive sights, eating some good food (including actual charcoal grilled pork ribs---I had them twice :) and hitting some fun bars for some pretty solid American Music by a Laos rock band. Nothing unusual happened here. The weather was pleasant all 3 days and we got a little re-charging to our batteries here and some picture taking as usual.

We're flying to Vietnam now, excited to see this country that American history and war movies has shown so much about. Laos Airlines will get us there in a quick 1.25 hrs.

Can't wait to hear (and see) about Vietnam!
