Hill-tribe trek, Phongsali, Laos, Part 1

2 day trek to see and stay with some hill-tribes. Michael from Bavaria and myself met our guide Mr Khampheng on the road halfway between Phongsali and Boun Neua where he lives. We set off up a dirt track off the main road. Khampheng is a good guide and has a lot of knowledge of the forest and the hill-tribes, he taught me and Michael many things. The 3 of us became good friends on our trek. Khampheng lives in Boun Neua and its a good place to stay if you want to do a trek. Khampheng phone number is 020-55787399 if you would like to go with him, I highly recomend him for any hill-tribe treks around Phongsali and Boun Neu.a

Places visited amongst others are Ban Xiang Kok, Muang Sing, Luang Prabang, Phonsavan, Vang Vieng, Vientiane, Hinboun, Savannakhet, Champasak, Wat Phu, Don Khon. This trip was organized by Sawadee Travel Organisation in the Netherlands and we were amongst the participants.

Dien Bien Phu, Vietnam to Muang Ngoi Neua, Laos by bus and boat

Got up at 4:45 this morning to take the bus down into Laos from Dien Bien Phu. There were several other people who were on it who had stayed at our hotel. It was almost entirely full of westerners (4 from the Netherlands, a Russian, a couple Brits, and the two of us, besides the other 2 Americans). My knees were pretty much touching the seat in front of me. I think it might have been the tightest fit in any bus I've ever been in. Tighter than any plane, too. It was an extremely scenic bus ride with lots of mud, rough roads, and remote villages thrown in. There was a bit of roadwork along the way including a couple new bridges going in.

During lunch, we all began to talk about the boat ride. Others were interested and we talked about trying to charter a boat to Muang Ngoi Neua in case there wasn't one going today, as the southbound boat apparently goes infrequently. Turns out a driver was bringing some people up from the river village and was going back anyway, so we got a good rate and he made a chunk of profit. We waited around for the bank to open (at Muang Khua where the bus stops and the boat leaves from) and several of us got money there. There didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to which cards were accepted or how much money you could get. And the ATM outside the bank would work with some kind of proprietary Lao card, I think, but not MasterCard or VISA.

The boat ride was awesome. The breeze was pleasant, so it was comfortable. It rained some, but we didn't get wet (only from some of the rapids!). We paid 100,000 each (about $12.50). It was so worth it. Very beautiful. My girlfriend felt a little sick in the bus (the road was very twisty) and is tired tonight, but feeling okay.
