Crossing Cambodia

Life in the slow lane

Despite the obvious attractions in Cambodia, such as being hit by a Ferrari while driving a Honda Dream, other countries are stimulating other directions: Lao seems well positioned for bicycling. Well, at least this article from last week's Bangkok Post mentions the possibility. The article is titled
'Luang Prabang by bike'.
It mentions amongst others being 'flashed' Lao style, with a smile that is. The author though seems to be a bit out of touch with reality, an old-fashioned romantic:
'At one restaurant I saw Laotian males sipping foreign liquor, while teenagers buzzed around on spanking new motorcycles'.
Decadence!
