No luggage compartment in this minibus, so through the window it went,
Sunset in Vientiane over the Mekong.
Pha That Luang Golden Stupa in Vientiane is considered the most sacred place in Laos.

As a post tour after our Enchanting Vietnam and Cambodia tour, ten of us ventured on to Laos. Vientiane is the capital city.  Our guide, Saly, had to load our luggage via the back window of the little orange bus.  We then spend the day visiting many temples with amazing Buddas.

on to The charming mountain area of Luang Prabang where we had lots of opportunities to shop for handicrafts, eat local cuisine and enjoy a full day cruise on the Mekong.
