Yesterday I got some that Hoa had taken with her camera that I downloaded onto my computer. She got back from Bangkok yesterday after spending two weeks doing an internship with a NGO. She is leaving on Friday to go back to Vietnam and I will miss her! Thanks Hoa for these great photos and a great first month in Laos getting to know you!

The "heritage" house being moved backwards away from the road. This is an example of a typical Lao house. The owners wanted to preserve it so they hired guys to slowly move it, keeping it completely intact because a new road goes too close to the front of their house. |
