Vientiane

Next we moved on to the Capital of Laos and our last stop in the country, Vientiane. For a capital it is so small, nowhere is more than 10 mins away in a car and there is not a lot to do in the city either. We only spent a couple of days there and most of that time was used getting things sorted for Thailand. We had to go to the Thai embassy only to find out we couldn’t get same day visas so then we decided to book flights to Bangkok so we would have 30 days permitted entry instead of 15 – problem solved!

 

We did have a little look around Vientiane, walking down the river etc, but we mostly just spent the time saying bye to ‘Beer Lao’, ready to welcome the ‘Changs’ again in Thailand.
