A Wat, Drinks at The Australian Embassy Club, More Shopping, Broken Sink
After we got up, and took a shower, I somehow toppled the porcelain sink into a million pieces. By the time we returned from dinner tonight it had been all repaired. Amazingly fast work in this bureaucratic Communist Country of Laos.
Observation: Thai and Laotians, are extremely good looking with great smiles and very white teeth.
We went to a beautiful Wat and then went shopping. We bought more scarves and other beautiful textiles. We went to Carroll Cassidy who really is probably the most important person in Vientiane for weaving. She belongs to the Australian Club that is attached to the Australian Embassy and invited us over for drinks to watch the sunset over the Mekong River. It was quite a setting.
Later we went out for Laotion food and took a wild but very slow Tuk-Tuk Ride back to the hotel. Tomorrow we need to get up to leave the hotel at 5:45am for our flight out of Laos and to Cambodia where we will be visiting Angkor Wat.
