1.4.2011 Luang Prabang, Laos

Today I met up with a lovely Irish couple who I first met in Sapa, North Vietnam and we went out to the Pak Ou caves in a tuk tuk together. The first half of the tuk tuk ride was along fairly even ground, the second half was on a rough bumpy dirt road which made for a fun ride! From Pak Ou village we took a boat across the river to the caves which were interesting and had great views from the top. Not quite as impressive as the caves we visited in Halong Bay in Vietnam though.
