its hard to know where to begin when describing our trip to laos. it was such a beautiful, lush, welcoming country & we loved our time there.

from siem reap, blaine, lindsay, daniel, cedar & i took a flight that dropped us off in northern laos, in a town called luang prabang. we were en route to an mcc regional retreat so we joined up with several mcc friends there.

luang prabang is officially one of my favorite place ever (perhaps vying with ubud in bali for tops). the whole town is a unesco heritage site & with good reason. the town is a great mix of charming, vibrant, & exotic all set along the picturesque banks of the mekong & lush mountain valleys. highlights included a trip to a waterfall, a boatride on the mekong, great times with friends & family, & the really delicious laotion food. (its much spicier than cambodian food, which was a fun change.)

a note to travellors: don't be tempted by the $1 street food buffet, even after 3 years of living in cambodia, it knocked both daniel & i out with gusto!
