Me love you Luang time

Our last day is Luang Prabang is here. Bummer! This town has totally grown on me. It was a great first stop on our trip to decompress and spend a few days in a true "local"-type setting. This morning, we got up and went to see the Tak Bat ceremony with the monks again. It is such a peaceful way to start the day. Of course, I woke up today at 4am after just over 4 hours of sleep. Needless to say, tonight may be an early night for me.

From there, we had breakfast at the same place as yesterday. Afterward, Lisa went back to the room to get ready to leave while Staci and I caught a little more time online. Our strategy was really not about the internet time but rather to stalk the little lady that was coming a bit later with our iced Lao coffee. Boy is that stuff worth waiting for...um, um, good!

We booked it back to the room and got our packs ready to go to the airport. We boarded our flight to Siem Reap, Cambodia and are in town for just over two days to see Angkor Wat, an ancient set of formerly Hindu now Buddhist temples which are one of the man-made wonders of the world. We are staying at a place called the Golden Banana (more on that later) and all seems to be well. We went out for a late lunch/early dinner where we had amok chicken, long beans & chicken, spring rolls and corn seed & rice bubble dessert along with a bottle of red wine. Tomorrow, our tuk-tuk driver comes to pick us up at double 0 dark (a little before 5am), so we can be in the Angkor compound to watch the sunrise. Should be spectacular, so stay tuned.
