Quick note here, details to follow....but I made it to Luang Probang, Laos, last night around 6pm. I'll get a post up later tonight or tomorrow morning with more details on the adventure getting here. I'm safe and unscathed, but unfortunately I can't say the same for a few fellow backpackers that were injured. They opted to take the one-day speedboat down the Mekong River, which crashed after striking some floating tree/debris as a result of 50-60 year record river levels here. Luckily my group of 5 decided on the more conservative two-day slow boat and got in last night....slow and steady wins the race after all.
More to come, including pictures of course. Stay tuned!
