We made it

17.11.2010

Me and Kat decided that the last post might have made some people worry about our travels towards Laos, this is just to say we made it safe and sound!

The bus was very comfortable with almost fully reclining seats and a ladyboy hostess bringing us water and whatnot. The driver appeared sober but the roads were hectic. He was taking the racing line most of the way, not nice to wake up and find yourself on the wrong side of the road. 12 hours later we arrived in Udon Thani. We then shared a ride with a German guy we had met on the bus, in the back of a pick up truck for an hour to get into Nong Khai.

A ladyboy gave you whatnots? Wrong side of the road? Back of a pick up truck? Am I worried?

I wasn't worried before - but it's all now sounding highly dodge! Also, forget drunk coach drivers and ladybirds, it's often the European's you meet and travel with that end up nicking your stuff! And I include Brits in that. 'Specially if you fall asleep on long journeys...

Don't worry! Nothings been stolen and I kept well away from the ladyboy.
