Hello all,
We are off for our first trip together of the year. We are going to central Lao to the small town of Luang Prabang on a tiny peninsula in the Mekong River. We obviously will have more information and photos when we get back but I wanted to give you an opportunity to preview what we will see.

Above is a 5 minute YouTube site that has good information. The New York Times also ran one of their 36 Hours in.... here is the link

We are staying at a small hotel called the APSARA so that can also be googled. We look forward to resuming our Asian adventure.
We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving and pray that the chaos will somehow improve so we can face the future with optimism and hope for renewed but more enlightened progress and prosperity.
Our best wishes,
Bill and Carol
