Day 24 - Phonsavan to Vientiane "Just hanging around ...."

Yet another travelling day, but we had to wait around until 3pm to check in at the airport. As we'd pretty much seen most things of interest in and around town already, we had a very lazy day. Slept in, then hung around the hotel after breakfast until checkout time at 12, walked into town for lunch (the same place for three days running, but at least the Pat Phet with chicken was very tasty!), hung around at the hotel a bit more, hung around at the airport until boarding time, hung around on the plane (not much else to do on a Lao Airlines plane), hung around at the hotel in Vientiane for an hour or so as we'd had such a stressful day, walked into the centre of Vientiane for dinner, hung around in town for a while, walked back to our hotel past the riverside food stalls (where large toads seemed to be a popular menu choice), then finished the day with a bit more hanging around. The end result was complete and utter exhaustion (as you would expect), so we're in no hurry to do so much hanging around again on this holiday!
