Trip to the Blue Lagoon
Steffie/Blaine/Kate on tree swingsOur last day in Vang Vieng we rented mopeds and rode the 43 km loop to an amazing cave and blue lagoon. Blaine and a guy from Chicago we met (Shane) must have jumped off the top of the tree into the water at least 30 times! We even came back for another round at sunset after we had been riding on the dirt roads and got so dusty. It felt like a scene out of a movie, the crystal clear turquoise water, colorful fish and mountains all around. The cave was about a 200 meter climb up the mountain and we were really suprised at what we found--the biggest cave we've ever seen with beautiful formations, bats, and a buddha statue/incense burning to boot!
We have now split from Steffie and Linh Sa and are in Luang Prabang for a few days. Very warm here but nice and laid back. We fly home in exactly 4 weeks from today. Crazy.

looks like a lot more fun that work. be careful on the mopeds - they can be hazardous...

we kept the speed under 100 mph. Blaine's not near the dare devil without you around.
The place looks great. We think the laughing Budha looks like Aussie Tony here at work. Biked past your old place today, is it for sale? Come on back. Graeme
I can see the resemblance with Tony and Buddha...and they're both so happy! But if tony keeps losing all his weight he might not continue the look.
Our neighbors sold their condo (next door) but I didn't think our landlord was saling.
I think you'll have to call my mom and ask her if she'll let us move back to NZ..her # is 601-925-0199
