A first glimpse of Laos

OK, so we changed into Laos via a 11h bus ride. Completely filled up with stuff that bus. This includes some sort of fish, the container of which was apparently leaking with the result that Kyras backpack was swimming, literally, in that stuff, with the result of having a nice fishy smell in all her stuff now... I hope we will not be followed by cats now all the time.
Other than that, fairly painless bus ride, and good news for all Swiss citizens, you can get into Laos visa free for 15 days. Yay! The little village Savannakhet where we are now seems very mellow, gives a good feel. It even has a dinosaur museum! And I can now proudly say that I held an original T-Rex femur in my hands, how cool is that! Well, we ate a good meal next to the Mekong river, sweated in the scorching Lao sun and made up our plans for the next months. There might be some surprises, but we'll have to see how doable our ideas are.
We will start with skating southwards direction Cambodia tomorrow, and hope to cross the border before the 9th December, as our allowed stay ends then.
Cheers
