Needing a rest, we decided to spend more than our usual three days in one place. Luang Prabang has been a nice town to kill some time. Though it is a heavily traveled destination on the SE Asian tourist circuit, it is also quite charming with it´s French colonial architecture, great variety of Laotian and French food, and plethora of outdoor activities. While here we have eaten well, gone river rafting, biked in the rain to an elephant camp, and spent a day swimming in the pools of an extensive waterfall with elephants. Tomorrow morning we depart to Vang Vieng further south along the Mekong.
