[[ January 16 Laos - Luang Prabang

Well, today started out overcast, cool and a small amount of rain. By mid morning it had turn turned sunny and hot. Ideal conditions for yet another boat ride. This time it was a short 15 minute trip down river to a place that made silk everything. 

Of course a chance to catch some more flowers ... and butterflies

A lady maneuvering her pig up the path...with one leg attached to the rope.

A studious monk ...

And in the late afternoon the perfect way to end the day was a sunset cruise with yet another boat ride. The scenes along the way show late afternoon life on the Mekong River.

Monks doing their thing ...

One monk stealing away to check his cellphone

Boys being boys ...

A place to grow cucumbers ...

Traffic ...

And finally ... Sunset on the Mekong Ruver ...
