The Lao Lao whisky bit back with a vengeance this morning as I was feeling pretty worse for wear. It was a role reversal as Laura is normally the one who suffers most but she was annoyingly hyper today. I did manage to drag myself out of bed however, get showered, then head down the road for some hangover curing noodle soup.... First mission of the day accomplished.

It was another damp and overcast morning in Vang Vieng when we woke. There had obviously been thunderstorms overnight as there were deep puddles where the road and pavements dipped.

His bus was at one so we decided to chill out with him this morning and enjoy a final brunch together. We headed out after everyone was showered and he was packed up and checked out, arriving at our favourite little place across the bridge just after ten. We ordered some food... Me and Steve...
