Vang Vieng Day 3 Started with a nice 4 hour bus ride to the party town of Vang Vieng.The bus was a VIP (just a coach) so it was fine but the roads are still something to get used to.They use concrete but they forget to smooth it out or they have made holes in it for the fun of it (along with the occasional 10 metre section where they have missed putting concrete down - weird), so you happily bounce along.Then there are the wandering cows, water buffalos etc that...

It was such a nice room with vi...

We were also told that it was a direct bus and that it would not take us via Phnom Penh. Neither was true. 18 hour later we arrived in Siem Reap so did not get much of a day here.
