Lovely Luang Prabang! I miss you! Vientiane is a drab cousin. I spent three nights in the capital including Christmas Day. I had a nice French dinner Christmas evening and raised a glass of wine to all of my loved ones. I was happy to leave on Dec 26 to fly to Bangkok.

The Laos and communist flags flying on the bank of the Mekhong River which marks the border between Laos and Thailand.

Breakfast on the balcony of my room.

The bungalow at Sala Inpeng where I stayed in Vientiane.

There was a beautiful temple complex nearby. This is the main gate.
