Louang Prabang Wats:
While still in Vientiane, someone told us that if we were interested in Wats, Louang Prabang was the place to be. Well, he was right. We spent 5 days in Louang Prabang, time badly needed by Ed to recover from dysintery, during which I had plenty of opportunities to roam around town at my own pace and visit some of the beautiful Wats. I particularly liked the courtyards, where I often stopped to read a book, eat ice cream,  or just hang around and relax,  watching the coming and goings of the monks.
This Wat was smaller, older and in worse shape than most other ones. But I liked it because I found it to have its own, unique character quite unlike any of the others.
