There is no such concept as time here in Laos. I think the word doesn't even exist!! We were supposed to be in Northeast Laos near the Vietnam border today, but actually we are still in Vang Vieng. Well, after waiting for the bus from 3pm until about 4:30 pm yesterday afternoon a bus was approching very fast and despite the waiving of our ticket seller, just passed! We didn't know what was going on, but after a few hectic words with his friend he directed us to his pick up and there we took off, to the ' Chase the bus to Sam Neua' car rallye! It was quite adventurous! He paced down the road, constantly junking the horn, slmost killing all the bicycle drivers along the road and in the end stopping in the middle of the road and meant: " Nevel mind! Tomollow! Solly! "
All righty, we are ready for another try!
