23 September 2005 - Vientiane

The day was sort of “lost”. I woke up late and missed the monks collecting their donations. Basically, I had breakfast, packed, and went to the airport. At the Bangkok airport I enjoyed the free Internet access and barely made my flight to Saigon. The flight was uneventful and I arrived to the hotel in time for happy hour!

Saigon seems very lively based on the drive from the airport to the hotel. I chose to skip dinner, unpack, and read a book. Another hurricane is headed towards Texas and Louisiana – CNN is all excited…
