Time to strap on the feedbag
Lao food for lunch, Love them Luang prabang suasages with jao bong
Pork stuffed lemon grass
And laarb
Blue rice WTF
pork salad
There are 2 nice waterfalls in LP the most visited is Kuangsi, we had been before so decided to check out the smaller one called tad sai. Excellent little spot where the Lao folk like to go on weekends
Take a tuk tuk from tow about 15 kms and tell the driver to come back to get you when your ready. To reach the falls you first take enough a small boat
I wasnt expecting much but it turned out to be a very nice place
Couple of local beauties were admiring the moobs,
Nice thread LBD Thanks.
Did you get a chance to eat at the "Elephant" (I think that's what it's called) restaurant.
On the left hand side as you go up the main drag towards the big temple.
We've had some bloody good feeds there.
Mrs Bld,s as mad as a box of frogs and wanted to give the zipline a go. Leaving me to sip a beer and ponder life as a single parent
Speaking of things french, We found a place to kill a bit of time and have a swim on a hot day while waiting to go out to the airport
LA PISTOCHE
i dont speak there shit but im guessing it means fookin big swimming pool
Small pools for kids to
Nice place to hang out if your in town on a hot day
Luang Prabangs a great place to wander around just checking out the old buildings and the relaxed pace of life
How cool is that eh?
Electric tuk tuks
Great pics BLD, Mrs. BLD looks in great nick.
Just read up on the history of the place, i see the Thais nicked that prabang twice, i can see what Rollst is talking about too. Seems youve missed a few opium dens
Er, actually ive got no idea what Rollst is on about

Got up early one morning and went to see the fresh market
Plenty of weird stuff to eat
This is the Luang prabang speciality called Lao seeweed, river moss infused with tomatoe, garlic and poppy seeds ponded flat and sun dried
Lightly fried its a good beer snack, once had it wrapped around a steak. quite like the stuff, Bit of sticky rice and some jao and yer Good to go
Faaark that jao was spicy
we always get some to bring back
Those are Sesame seeds.
^looks like dried/pressed riverweeds covered with sesame seeds. Like the beer munchies in post 42.
Thnx for the pix, bld. LP now in bucket list. Does the riverweed snack taste similar to the nori (dried seaweed) that they use for sushi/maki?
Don't miss the waterfalls outside of town. Way over the top. Plus... You get to see what most of Laos looks like so you don't get the wrong image of the country by staying in the French quarter.
Yeah, looks like it changed a lot since my last visit 10 years ago, on my list, too.
Those river weed snacks look yummy, will have a go at it, the stuff is available locally, will send the missus to collect some.
I,'ll finish this thread later. We are off on a roadie today to see the plain of jars it's about a 6 hoùr drive to xiengkhuong province.
plain of jars is great, visited sites 1,2 and 3 with my own car
Dont miss the MAG visitor center on the main road
