Quick run to Laos

Good afternoon,

I feel like I am letting my friends down!!! It has been exactly 1 month since a post!! I am sorry guys, I will do better.  Anyway, summer school ended recently and I thought that I was going to just relax around here and chill.  No....I had to do a Visa run.  A Visa run is when you have to leave the country, I went to Laos, go to the Thai embassy there and get an updated Visa.  There are many different types of Visa's,  I am on a work Visa.  I was DREADING the fact that I would have to spend money and go somewhere when I wanted to just relax.  Well, it turns out, it was well worth it and I met some AWESOME people on my trip.  We went to Vientienne Laos, nothing spectacular about the city but I added a stamp to my passport (woohooo!!).  Here are some pics of my trip to Laos. I walked around the street of my hotel and found a temple that had a school on the grounds also.  The BEST part: SHEEP in the back of a pickup truck!!  I was able to see some kiddies and their uniforms are different than the one's here in Thailand.  Oh, I met a man from Lufkin, TX that lives in Korat, Thailand which is about 7 hours north of my city.  It was great to talk about southern food and weather, a taste of home!!

Enjoy,

Charmel
