    Those little birds are deep fried and eaten crunchy with dip. Not bad. As you know many markets have burned. Most Lao think the fires were set?Was there many years ago. The old city was blown off the map , nothing was left but rubble. But sit there almost untouched was Buddha. Almost a religious awaking seeing it sitting there while all else was gone. The city you are staying in there is the new city and was just starting.when I was there. No power most of the time. Hard to get food. Lao airline landed at the military base. How things are changing. At least this change you are showing everyone is for the best. Thanks

    If you know what it takes to make a top quality knife for cutting steaks from large beef and pork, and if you hired a few people to make that knife that would hold an edge with meats, a profitable international market would be easy to develop via shipping around the world.
