Heading towards The Plain of Jars...

Phonsavan, Laos


After finally arriving at the correct bus station, which should’ve taken 5 minutes, but instead took 30 as the driver of our tuk tuk pretended he understood what we were saying, so after another huge tour of Luang Prabang we just managed to jump on the bus to Phonsavan as it was leaving, luckily! The drive wasn’t too long, only 9 hours, and considering we only broke down once due to a flat tire, we considered it a good journey, well for Laos transport anyway. Finding a guesthouse was far too easy as well, as we stayed in the first place we checked out, as it was clean(ish) and cheap(ish), but more accurately, it was pouring down with rain so couldn’t be bothered to look anymore! In the evening we simply relaxed, chatted to a few tourists who also decided to come here, which we were surprised that so many (8 people) had as it is Miles and Miles away from anywhere and a mission to get to and leave from! This was one of the reasons as to why we came here as no one we have met so far has managed to make it this far out, and as I had read up quite a bit on The Plain of Jars, which is the main attraction here, I was desperate to come!
