Hello everyone
We are having lots of fun here right now. we are back in Vientiane we flew here yesterday and we are waiting for our plane ride to KL in Malaysia and then to Jakarta so this is our last day in Laos!
The traffic here is really weird. The cross walks here are just a waste of paint! people will not stop for you and if you want you can just cross anywhere in the street where there aren't cars in the way. When your in a car lots of people when they turn go into one lane and then sort of drift all over the road! there are not the same rules to a vehicle as there is in Canada. Most of the people here have a scooter but some have a car. and there are these things called Tuk Tuks that are like mini taxi except they are way cheaper. Some people even ride scooters on the sidewalks.
Its new years here and there is lots of people on the side walks throwing water and flower at you (part of the new year) and today everyone is having parties on the sidewalks and washing the Buddha statues. yesterday there was a huge market and i got some stuff. Starting yesterday normally everyone gets three days off from work and go have fun in LAOS!!!!!
Since Laos is poor i thought these prices where a bit expensive
see if you can figure out the money!!
