The 4000 islands of Laos (SEA 68)

Last post: From Vientiane to Don Khong (SEA 67)

The prefect feeling of traveling isn’t on one of the temples or at one of the hot spots where you take some pictures for your gallery. No. This morning I had this perfect moment. I was sitting on a small boat on the Mekong and the sunrise was kissing the water. Everything around me seems to be perfect. I haven´t had the feeling to take my camera and make a picture. I was happy to enjoy this moment. My moment.

The bus drive ended – with a 3 hours break included – after 22 hours on Don Khong. The biggest island of the 4000 Islands is not that crowded and not many backpackers are staying here. We found a cheap and clean guesthouse and I enjoyed the first shower after 2 long days of being on the road.

Tomorrow we will take a small boat in direction Don Det. This is the most visited island here.
