Well, it turns out that traveling for 3 months is not always fun and exciting. It turns out that there is also long bus rides up windy roads, squat toilets, realizing your sheets don't look very clean after you just slept in them all night, occasional diarrhea, upset stomach, walking to some unknown place in the hot sun with a heavy pack, frequent mis-communications, and the need for ever present flexibility. Today I'm feeling the less glamorus aspects of traveling and looking forward to feeling healthy again!
We've had a nice few days in the mountainous portion of northern Thailand. We rented a motorbike and explored beautiful hillsides, a cave, and a jungle trail. Then I was sick for a couple days and we kinda took it easy just playing cards and sleeping and short walks.
Today we are going to head to Chiang Kong in North-eastern Thailand and will cross into Laos. Then we plan to take a 2 day boat trip up the Mekong River to the city of Luang Prabang. We'll write more when we get there!
