Vang Vieng, Laos

Some activity during the first day of Vang Vieng. I had great intentions of rock climbing, however my incrediable guest house that had a way of sucking time and will out of you a the while enjoying good conversations with all the people and alternate activities seemed to make this not happen ... even though I was to stay here another 5 nights. The first photo is the blue lagoon, some phenomenal swimming in clear cool water ... something new and refreshing. Met a 65 year old woman traveling with her son. It is her first time out of the US. You can see her climbing out of the water on the bottom left after a go at the rope swing. Other are the most famous buckets of SE Asia and a fire dancer who must have been one of the travellers here in Vang Vieng.
