Back in the cyber cafe in Luang Prabang.
Can you believe this?
The squiggles on this keyboard slow me down somewhat from my normal disabled snail pace, still, no worry, G is having his photos put on to disk, so I have the odd hour to kill!
Watch out for the Sunday lunch invitation on return!
Up at 5.00 am to see/ give food to the monks, then to the market to see what we have been eating.
The fruit & veg look great, chickens & ducks sounded OK, (cheep, cheep, quack, quack) but the beetles, grubs, skewered frogs, buffalo bits(complete set of legs, from knee down, ears, lips & noses) didn't look quite as appetising somehow
Brill dinner last night at restaurant where J Oliver has had lessons & eaten ($13 including beer)
Out on bikes from hotel (sit down & beg, I believe)
1 hour up around local villages - dirt roads with potholes/mud outside town. G's chain off every 8 min. Fascinating / entertaining for the locals to see us on bikes (a bit like home, really)
Back to town for repairs. My chain off as well by then. Great mechanic, G covered in mud, sweat & oil.
No problem. We don't dress up much here.
We'll try to post again from Cambodia.
Happy Birthday Jen!

I have been reading it. The photo posting didn't work if that was what it was supposed to be.
Enjoy the rest of your holiday
I am reading your blog. Still no photos. A late congratulation with the birthdays. Sounds like you are having the most fantastic trip.

I assume that with the chain falling off every 8 mins it gave you the chance to stay ahead and not get the dreaded left turn incident occuring again!
Good point, though sometimes it's hard to arrive to definite conclusions
