Laos, 2005
During the summer of 2005 I once again had the oppertunity to visit Laos. Those of you who have looked at the page I have made for my 2002 visit know how I look upon that country. I think it one of the best places I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. So, of course, I jumped at the chance. I went with my little sister this time, for some added complexity!! lol

Vientianne, Laos (2005-07-29)
In the summer I was able to go to my favourite place for the second time, very lucky. Stayed in Vientiene for over 2 weeks and travelled south on the Mekong to see the Irrawaddy dolphins, which we actually saw. Not bad to say there are about only 100 left in the whole world!!
Panoramas
View from the Hotel, Vientiane
Looking out over the Mekong from the roof of out hotel in Vientiane. The opposite bank of the river is Thailand. This panorama requires the Java plugin.
View from the Hotel, Vientiane
Looking out over Vientiane, inland. One can easily see the nearest wat (temple) with its gold guild. Also the corrigated iron roofs are shown together with rediculously large satellite dishes. This panorama requires the Java plugin.
Sunset, Vientiane
Looking out over the capital, Vientiane, from one of the field points. I'm amazed at the colours shown, and also, at the time, how quickly it went dark. This panorama requires the Java plugin.
