The scenery is much the same as Laos except I’ve timed it badly (winter) and it’s overcast the whole way making the exposure on the photos harder to get right, apologies. Today there was a lot of dams as we ride along the river, both operating and being built.
I did go and see “O beautiful one” before we left so at least he held the rain back for the whole three days. Also in the tiny backwater areas where we stop for lunch they have electricity here as opposed to Laos so I can have a cold beer for lunch!
We stopped at this little tin shed on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere where these guys were making the most amazing wood carvings.
After one last huge dam we stop in Kham Duc, population 2,500 with enough time for a back relieving massage after the 120km before mountain deer and a few beers for dinner in a local restaurant.
