Trek out and Kayak down the Nam Song River

In the morning we had a shorter trek out of the village, and some tastey food, beer, and of course some lao lao the night before. We then transfered to kayaks for a 4 hour trip back towards Luang Prabang. We saw some great scenery. We saw some people net fishing from the lao version of a long boat. We also saw families panning for gold. We stopped and observed them. Though we didn't see any nuggets, they were gettings some great gold dust.
