There were several highlights for me during the trip. The BIGGEST one would be to be able to see the Mekong River and the priviledge of travelling on it. I was so touched while I was on it (I travelled on it to go to Laos!) =)
Mekong River, the river that gave life to many many people living in many countries. Mekong River is not grand when u look at it, but knowing it it connects me to many different countries, especially to my friends in China, I cant help but feel its majesty.
The next highlight would be to enter Laos and then to be able to see Myanmar.. haha.. We didnt enter Myanmar cos we didnt bring passport along, and somemore we got to pay US20dollars if we wanna enter it..
This trip to Laos takes us 4 hours of travelling from ChiangMai to ChiangRai. Its in ChiangRai tt we took the boat, traveled on the Mekong. It is in another small town in ChiangRai, called MaeSai, tt we saw Myamnar..
Oh yes coming to ChiangRai, we went to the Golden Triangle.. So COOOOOOOL! I am always very fascinated by triad, drugs, the "underworld". to be able to be there and to feel the connection, it once again amazes me.. haha!
Many didnt wanna come cos of the long journey.. Took us 4 hrs car ride to get there.. and another 4 hours to come back. I know tt actually KY not very onz for htis kinda thing one. So nxt time go backpack cannot find him.. haha.. Robert, SL and LY more onz!!
