Merry Christmas from Vang Vieng
Merry Christmas to all of you out there and back home from Vang Vieng in Laos!
It's wonderful here and in fact I am very glad to spend it here, rather than in Southern Thailand at the moment! So for those of you worried: we are perfectly fine and felt nothing from this massive earthquake! Thanks god. It's truly a tragedy and I feel deeply with all the people that got caught in this catastrophe and are still struggling down there at the moment!
I passed a wonderful Christmas in Vientiane! Christmas Eve I spent with Karen and her friends in a French restaurant in Vientiane where we got served a delicious 7 course French dinner. What a delight after my upset stomach :-) Yesterday morning Elodie arrived safely in Vientiane and after picking her up at the airport and some airy tuk tuk rides (the local motorbike pick up taxis) the Christmas marathon continued at another of Karen's friends house, where we had a really chill relaxed Christmas day brunch right by the Mekong. Thanks again Karen!
Great times :-)
Today, we made our way out of Vientiane on the last two 'seats' in the VIP bus to Vang Vieng! Well, the seats where small plastic chairs they put up for us in the gangway between the regular bus seats ... but we arrived and had a great afternoon watching the sunset with a cool bear at a lame riverfront bamboo bar! Tonight we'll be checking out the full moon party! So merry Christmas again to all of you back home!! We'll be heading out east towards the Vietnam border tomorrow.

Hi Boris, salut Elodie!
I'm more than happy to know both of you are in good shape, having a wonderful time in Laos.
In fact, since yesterday we could not stop thinking you two were right in the middle of this tragic event...
Take good care of you, keep having fun, enjoy your trip and think about all of us that are working right now! :)))
Bisous, kuss, Marie

Buon Natale!!
Ciao Borisssss!!! i miei auguri arrivano con ritardo ma arrivano! ho provato a mandarti un sms sul tuo numero ma non credo ti sia arrivato! Ieri quando ho sentito del terremoto mi sono spaventata, anche i miei genitori (ti salutano e ti fanno gli auguri) erano preoccupatissimi! mi sono tranquillizzata solo quando Laura mi ha detto che le avevi scritto! Mi raccomando continua a divertirti, ma mi raccomando ti rivoglio a Roma tutto intero!! un'infinità di baci Manu

Lieber Boris
Auch wir (Marion, Peter, Caro, Maike und Those) haben uns Sorgen viel Sorgen um Dich gemacht. Gestern Abend waren wir bei Maike und haben dann im Internet nachgeschaut und waren dann sehr beruhigt, Deine Nachricht zu lesen. Es ist ganz schlimm, was wir hier im Fernsehen zu sehen bekommen.
Ich hoffe, dass Du Deine Zeit weiterhin genießen kannst, Deine Berichte und Bilder jedenfalls sind sehr beeindruckend.
Ansonsten haben wir uns (oben genannt) an den Feiertagen getroffen, das war auch mal wieder sehr schön.
Alles Gute! Diana und Peter
