Lovely Luang Prabang

Luang Prabang was really neat! We arrived there by a slow boat which was really cool! Luang Prabang is a lot calmer than Chiang Mai or Bangkok. Lao food is really good. It is spicy and similar to Thai food. In Luang Prabang we went to coffee shops to do schoolwork and taught English to students almost every day. The students were all really nice. We also went up to a waterfall to see it and swim. It was freezing, especially compared to the air which was about 90-95F! Another fun thing we did was going to a Lao story telling. A storyteller told traditional Lao fables. It was really cool!

we loved this bamboo bridge… it costs about 1 USD per person to cross it and the money goes to maintaining the bridge as well as to the family who builds it each year. The bridge only stands during the dry season because during the wet season the water level is too high.

Xayphone, our slow boat guide, joined us a couple times for dinner!
