The Mekong River - Laos

After one entire day on a bus to get to the Thailand-Lao border, I had to ride an uncomfortable boat for two full days along the Mekong river in Laos to get to the nearest city - Luang Prabang. The Mekong is an important source of life and income throughout China, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. It also happens to be home to the giant catfish.
