This is Henry, my lovely travelling companion. He enjoys eating my food before i'm finished, and seducing local cats with his hair.
Linda and Dave
Who we went to visit, (thus fulfilling our maternal unit's worst nightmare of having all her litter overseas in the same place, flying on the same planes at the same time...) occupy their couch a little bit, and watch their 'My Name is Earl' dvds alot. Thankyou!
The Gibbon Experience
This is an eco-tourism activty, as an offshoot to a broader project of conserving the beautiful jungle in Bokeo province, northern Laos.
You get to fulfill all your childhood fantasies of zipping through the jungle on flying foxes, and living in treehouses for two nights.
We didn't see any gibbons (except for a seppo in the distance) but we did see a snake and lots of birds. What a mad three days!
Food
What we tasted of Laos food was great. I suspended my vegetarianism and ate some frog, and various other once-alive things. I'm sorry little frog - i won't do it again!
Climbing
We managed to do some climbing in Chiang Mai and Veng Vien. Our Lao climbing guide Pohn was a buff axe. He says his hands have the same physical structure as a gecko's.
