Luang Prabang, Laos - October 8th Day one

Left Pattaya early on Saturday morning and headed for Bangkok airport.Heavy downpour of rain which we little realised was the start of the severe flooding Bangkok is still experiencing.

90 minute flight to Luang Prabang, a charming little town surrounded by verdant hills with the Mekong river running alongside it.So much calmer than Siem Riep or Pattaya

Checked into a small guest house and went for walk around the town. Cheap place to visit and all the locals we came across were very friendly. Laotians much more quietly spoken than Thais and the town felt very safe.
