Bucket in and around....

HELLOOOOO,

I wanted to describe the most amazing experience that we had (its Chloe by the way). Before I do this i want to say that Leigh and I have prepared a wonderful Bangkok presentation with pictures and vids, and every time we try to post it it takes forever to post and then fails cause the internet is brutal, the excuse was that it was Saturday and the high speed internet is not high speed on Saturday. What a nut. Anyways, we are going to try to post it in Luang Prabang when we have more time. We have been busy tubing all day here in Vang Viang.


Anywho, back to the amazing experience. So our first day in Vang Viang we went tubing obviously. For those of you that don't know, you rent a tube and tube down the river and stop at each bar along the way. At these bars there are slides, rope swings, flip cup, free shots (but they are nasty cause they have snakes, bees and centipedes in them) and spray paint. We basically had the most wild day of our lives and met some sick sickkkkk people. Oh and our team won flip cup obv. Oh and we did the rope swing which was freaking and amazing. We have 400 pictures which we will post soon.

So we ended up leaving the last bar at 6ish, and it gets really dark here early so a group of 8 of us were floating down the river in the pitch black with only the stars as our guide. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. You could see the outline of the limestone mountains which are really pointy and it was just breathtaking.We all just floated down this river in our tubes singing songs and looking up at the sky. It was a magical experience. Kindo of creepy at times when your butt hit a rock or a twig grazed your leg but appart from that it was amazing. HEAPPS OF FUN, as our new aus friend would say.

Going to post picts and vids soon. We have the best videos.

Miss you HEAPPSSSSS
