Looks like a Laosy Christmas

For the first few days of the Christmas holiday, we had Sara's brother Matt staying, so had a hectic time experiencing some Bangkok nightlife. He's headed off on the rest of his round-the-world tour, and we've headed North to spend Christmas in Laos. After a chilly overnight train journey, we've reached Chaing Mai, and should be at the border tomorrow. Absoltely no idea what we'll get up to, as neither of us is the planning type, but most people who've been say Laos is a fantastic place. Maybe apart from Natalie who got ill for a few years with Typhoid there. And Dom, who nearly died of Dengue Fever or something...
