Tuesday, February 7, 2012 Chiang Kong, Thailand
CHIANG KONG, Thailand The next day, after breakfast and some shopping in Burma, I picked up my passport no problem and walked back to Thailand. Grabbed a bus to Chiang Rai and then another to Chiang Kong. Made it there around 4pm and read poolside at my hotel before settling in for what I hoped would be an early night. Turns out I got NO sleep instead since it was cold and the "man" next to me snored SO loud. He would have given my dad a run for his money and that's saying A LOT! Some Brits and Canadians : )
Not all was lost though since I met some nice British fellows and 2 Canadian girls (there I go collecting Canadians again!) who were all heading off on the slow boat to Laos with me. This brings me to Laos…. Wow! I can't believe I'm going to be caught up! Okay, I still have a lot to tell you about Laos, but at least I'm blogging about my current country now! I've been so behind that this darn blog thing has seemed completely insurmountable. I can do it, I can do it, I did it!!!! Toot toot, I can toot my own horn here!J
