In Laos

I'm now a week into my trip and had a couple of days in Northern Thailand visiting Chiang Rai and the Golden Triangle (once the centre of the opium trade). Did not get into Bangkok due to floods though no problems at or around the airport. Then crossed the Mekong River into Laos and spent two days travelling down the river to Luang Prabang. This is a very interesting town, well desrving its Unesco World Heritage status. Not uploaded pictures yet as rather a lot to sort!
