Huay Xai


I'm pleased to report that I was feeling a bit better this morning and just about up for the bus ride to the border town of Chiang Khong and the river crossing to Huay Xai in Laos. But that's enough travel for today. I've had a stroll around the area, and up to the local Bhuddist monastery. The photos are of the steps, and of the view looking back to Thailand from my lodge window. My options from here were down to either the slow boat (2 days) down river to Luang Prabang, or the speedboat option (6 hours).

Since I'm beginning to feel that my time is rapidly running out I'm going for the latter.
