Locals munching on Live Stuff...

We took a very long bus journey to Vientiane, arriving at 10.30pm. Along the way, we broke down with a flat tyre and while they were changing it, Charly wandered off to find a suitable loo spot. A minute later she shouted me to come as she had found them selling weird live larvae, we only assume to eat. There was a lot of trade and they were soon nearly sold out. Sure, it’s delicious!

Moving Larve, that the locals eat!!!

Yet again, broken bus...

A truck full of people

When we finally arrived all the guesthouses we checked were either too expensive or full, in the end we found an ok room, with no windows and walls made of cardboard, plus it was boiling! All this for 60,000Kip, what not a bargain! Hey-ho, we can’t always be lucky…
