Day 21 - Vang Vieng to Vientiane - "Where is that music coming from, oh that would be Thailand".

Another early start to be packed and on the road again for another mini bus ride, this time 3 hours to travel to Vientiane. The usual tuk tuk rip off from the bus station to the hotel when you don't know how far it is and how much you should be paying, only to discover it is actually quite close. Though we are yet to have one to match a stop we had in Mexico where we got in the taxi with our bags & were driven around the corner - less than a block.

Gorgeous room overlooking the Mekong, very new, bright and airy. We headed down for a late lunch to the nice restaurant in front of our hotel, we then decided we were so tired we went for an afternoon nap!

We woke up to a lovely sunset from our bed overlooking the river and headed down for dinner. The music was very loud from the other side of the Mekong and when I questioned where it was coming from was told "Thailand"
So that was the lovely view from our bed - Thailand.
