Vang Vieng to Vientiane

Day 28

So we got up early today as we are moving on again, we got up and checked out of our hotel and booked our bus to the capital of Laos, the tuk tuk took us to the station to get our bus, we were sad to be leaving Vang Vieng as we have had so much fun n met so many great people! But a detox and relax will be a nice change haha! After alot of faffing around at the bus station which seems to be the norm at south east asia transport terminals we managed to get on a bus...that was going to Chiang Mai and Bangkok the totally opposite way!! After alot of sweating n asking around it turned out the bus was doing a detour to Vientiane ha we just hoped that was right! We got speaking to some fella from Chicago and we where talking about the Chicago White Sox cos we saw them last year In Chicago turned out he was a die hard supporter haha so that was the conversation for our 4 hour bus journey :-/ he was going to Chiang Mai n was also stressing he was on the wrong bus haha so we had lots in common! The bus....no air con....no leg room....4 hours = killer!! We sweated the whole way n I mean the whole way!! We stopped for a toilet break n we spent our last pennies on ice cream we thought it would be the sensible option to get us through the journey!! So we have arrived in Vientiane thank god...we found a nice little guesthouse with three English TV channels woohoo!!! We went out for tea at a local Laos restaurant it was Amazing!!!! And now we are sitting in a nice coffee shop having a brew reading our bible and planning tomorrow :-) so goodnight ya'll! X
