Christmas Day still in Pakse...




Well, all best plans still need to be flexible.... Champasak will need to wait another couple of days. Nicole has been sick all night and John's tummy is rumbling painfully. Was it the water we were given in that little local restaurant a couple of days ago? It tasted and indeed looked as if it was coming straight from the Mekong... Or is it the salad we indulged in yesterday as it was Christmas Eve? - we usually know better and stay away from salads which we know could have been washed in any old water... So we've been languishing all day, looking at the swaying palms outside our window to soothe ourselves, trying to recover some strength and drinking pepsi to re-hydrate ourselves. The wonderful thing is that Christmas has been so quiet. The karaoke bar next door was silent for the first time!


Must go now and rest some more...
