So, as posted previously, we set off for Vientiane for 5 days.
We were leaving from the bar in Chiang Kong and, as promised the tuk tuk arrived on time to pick us up at 09.00 to take us down to the dock. From there it was a boat across the river to Huay Xai and check in at the Laos immigration. A fee of US$ 35 for the entry visa. A bit of a wait but not too bad. Then a minibus to the airport.
