- Photos NOT OK to edit
I have decided that the end of next Jan or beginning of February, I will take a a trip, swinging through northern Laos and then a few days in Cambodia.
A good friend, a photographer who has traveled with me before, will be going along.
He is great to travel with, very easy going, intelligent and perfectly willing to spend any money necessary to make trip better.
Our basic plan is to fly to Bangkok, then go north first by by plane then bus and then minivan or truck/bus as far as Muang Sing (red arrow). Muang Sing is very close to the Chinese, Burmese, Lao border, is the main market town of many ethnic tribal villages and is the center of the well-known Golden Triangle.
Then, over the period of 10 days to 2 weeks, we will travel to Luang Prabang (blue arrow) and then fly to Siem Reap to see Angkor Wat.
Then we go back to Bangkok and home. (We have both been in Bangkok a few times and don't need any time there except to get ready for the flight home - 22 hours)
