Arh back again for a bit....had heaps of trouble trying to upload the last batch of photos from a decent Internet cafe in Vientiane.

Pikey - the steak in Luang Namtha was a beauty & not road kill, although I admit it did look a bit like it.
Now I reckon we should set up a GT Rider trip to Luang Namtha for the night for a beer 'n steak night at the Manychan. From Cnx it would be 3 nights 4 days. 1 night o Chiang Khong. 1 night to Luang Namtha. 1 night to Chiang Rai. Then home to Cnx. Any takers?

My daily brekky spot in Luang Prabang - The Scandinavian Bakery.

And the GT Rider's breakfast

# 5 The Omelette Special. Price 145 baht approx.

At night for me it's usually the Soudaphone, which some GT Riders complain is hard to locate, because all the riverside restaurants look the same. Here's the sign to look for.

I forgot to take a meal shot, :oops: but did snap a table setting for a Lao / Viet police nosh up that I observed one night.

I wonder if we could ever get some riders together for this?
