Lao - Songkran

13th April 2008

My friends were hoping to escape Songkran in Thailand. What they didn’t know was that Lao is just as enthusiastic about the Water Festival. I had a few refreshing splashes from water guns and buckets walking down the streets of Vientiane.

We ventured from Vientiane to Vang Vieng by bus. All the way on our journey back from Vang Vieng, the bus was greeted by buckets and water hoses. Anyone who dared venture off it was in for a bath.
