January 31, 2010 – Luang Prabang to Phonsavan, Laos
The bus ride from Luang Prabang to Phonsavan takes 8 hours through winding mountainous roads. The distance between the two places is not great – only about 300 kms, but because of the road quality and the sharp curves, it takes 2-3 times longer than it would back home.
We arrive in Phonsavan to find it a lot bigger than we expected, having all the necessary amenities, meaning an ATM and an Indian Restaurant.
We spend the rest of the day checking out the town, looking into tours of “the Plain of Jars” and just enjoying some down time – watching Season 2 of “Dexter” and playing Skip-Bo.
