day 29 ............ mingling with the hill tribes

heading out on our ferry up the Mekong river
our tour guide plus two
arriving at pak ou cave
stairs up into cave
7000 buddhas and a couple dozen bats awaited our arrival
view out to the Mekong
3 hours later we arrive at kamu lodge
boutique tents... as rough as we get
heading to lunch
and shoveling it down
napping through the last hours of 20 something
finally nightfall arrives
as do ALL the bugs
and a little birthday "cake" too

  2. flowers needled in a tree trunk wrapped in banana leaves! i tried but they didn't have cake. the base of the candles were strapped to a toothpick, and needled in as well.
