    You kids make my day. Tia cried and l also had tears. War. What a waste! Suffering doesn't stop, the day they end.
    But then to go on and show that living continues put a smile back on my face. Love your videos and affection for life. Stay safe.

    Ooh ooh....we haven't seen a Tia for scale in a minute! That was a nice surprise 😂
    Your reaction to the museum mirrors my reaction to the war remnants museum in Ho Chi Minh. When you see that level of human suffering, it's impossible not to be moved by it. But when you realise your own country had a hand in it, it makes it hit home even more. ❤

      That Ho chi Minh museum still sticks in my mind. ... My dad took me in 1996 ..not another Aussie or western tourist that I saw ...I was 15 and so glad my dad took me so far out of my comfort zone to see the word that way ..
      The only way we learn from history is to know it well.

      ​@@aidanmargarson8910yeah I was in Thailand and they have homemade rice whiskey I think it has that in it too if it's not made correctly you can kill you but I took it from strangers while I was in Thailand during the celebration at the temples people were just handing it to me and I took a chance and drank it but yeah that can even happen in the United States where I live there's people that make their own moonshine if it's not made correctly you'll die

    Lao is really fantastic. First time I went there was 2001 and the road to the monument was a dirt road. It has been growing like crazy. First couple times I rode a motorcycle to the north. Now they have an amazing high speed train. There are so many things to see and do there, From Van Vieng, a crazy backpacker party and adventure town, to the serine Luang Prabang it has so much to offer for both tourists and adventure travelers alike. Slow travel it and you will come across some of the most under rated experiences in SE Asia. PS beer Lao rocks. Stick to beer though because of some concerns about other alcoholic drinks.

    Vientiane is such a different pearl in SE Asia. If you compare to Bangkok for example. Have in mind that’s the capital of Laos. The vibe is totally relaxed, nearly no cars ore motorcycles on the streets, it’s a unbelievable experience.
    If you stay there , make a visit at Carol Cassidy’s shop, Lao Textiles, you won’t regret.
    A lot of thanks to the Wanderer for showing us this remarkable City. 👍👍👍👏🇨🇭

    Firstly, arghhhh my OCD went off the charts with the street wiring.. WHY LAOS? Secondly, in Australia you can only go in one direction with bumper cars (dodge-’em cars), going rogue in any direction is not allowed due to safety standards so not as fun as the days when i was a kid. Thirdly, no explanation as to where the stairs were going, again OCD arghhhh😂

    • @OnePackWanderers
