LOVELY.. Hi good morning watching from England.. Thank you for sharing this video I feel I'm on holiday now.... Please stay connected.. Love Sally and Paul 🦋🌹🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Sal' & Paul 👋 Hi
@@NowinLao lovely.. Hi there happy palm Sunday take care stay safe and connected.. 🦋🌹🎶
Where you stopped to check out the house, is Ban B'Or. My wife lived in Ban B'Or around 2006-07, behind the temple that is on the right. The house she was house sitting for friends, backed onto the Mekong with glorious views and shared a fence with the temple. Our very good friends live in Ban B'Or also, on the opposite side of the road to the Mekong. The road has always been shite, and is still shite. Also, the owners of a Thai/Lao restaurant that used to be in the 'Gong were also from Ban B'Or. Small world.
Todd,, a bit of trivia. Behind the "clock tower" round about on Thadeua Rd (left takes you to the Friendship Bridge, right to Ban B'Or), is the College of National Defence (Laos' version of Duntroon). Before the Pathet Lao took over and the US closed its embassy in Vientiane in 1975, all that property used to be a large gated community for American Embassy personnel and their families. It was like a mini American town within Vientiane.
Cool video 🙂👍
Double parking rule - just leave in neutral.
With high inflation, Laos is smart to grow your own food. Here in the USA, food prices are expensive. I spent $76 US dollar for small bag of grocery from Safeway store. It's usually cost me $46.
Todd they called a federal election for the 31st of May do you have to vote , even if you are not interested ,
Better make that 21 May. Gordo is a bit slow.
Good! I'll be in transit or in the air on the 21st 😁👍
Yes.. I'm supposed to Gordo.. usually don't bother though.. you know how it is 😁
@@Vinnie101a I would have got a bluey in the post if I turned up on the 31st phew
@@gordo191 : I’m sure the date will be mentioned more than once over the next few weeks. Don’t think you would have missed it. ;))
@@Vinnie101a thank goodness for the mute button
Claire said you should throw in some "having a Captain Cook" when having a sticky Beck. That's a good price for a few tallies.
Todd , Now lost in Laos ?
I:ve heard about walk about , is this a new Assie thing for drive about ?
Now I understand how Assie's find other Country's. :)
🇦🇺🍺🙏👍🤟
Very cool. You did well on your mission of discovery Mr. Hales.
Haha cutting napier grass for feed for the cattle
Thanks for the info,it's good to know 👍
Hi Todd. I love the 'Sunday drives', always so much to see. The houses you showed us at the start are amazing. When I got home home from my travels I came home addicted to strong coffee with condensed milk (Vietnamese coffee...but obviously not exclusive to Viet Nam). Have you told Neenee that the 'Sunday drive' is a favourite Aussie past time? Cheers and have a great day.
Hey Tod, white pine needle tea and dandelion leaf and root tea will fight and prevent covid. My family and myself aren't vaxed, my daughter has asthma and got mild covid, but the rest of us have been exposed many times and never been affected. This has become a very common occurrence in Australia of late. It seems the vax has made people more susceptible to covid, but l think it also depends on your health status 🤔
Great tour of the back roads. Really interesting seeing it. Thanks mate.
Great video Todd. Beautiful scenery indeed. I'm home sick
Hopefully the place opens up fully soon 😁👍
Thanks
wow what a beautiful place. talk about a urban paradise. I think you might have to go back and do some more exploring. maybe worth hiring a motor bike for a day or two.
Another great idea Bruce... 👌
💯🔥💙👍
Fantastic..
Always enjoy your adventures..
Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
LOVELY.. Hi good morning again.. watching from England.. Bring back memories of my tayhawan village in the Philippines.. Thank you for sharing this video..please stay connected.. Love Sally and Paul 🦋🌹🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
🇱🇦❤🇺🇲
Absolutely Awesome Video Mate
Howdy Todd,,great version of Purple Haze! Covid does indeed suck. Glad you and Neenee are well on the mend. This vid was full of my faves. Markets,,cool,amazing houses,,,pretty country,,and sweet,,kind,,friendly Lao people. The woman at the table with the white head wrap,,she looked to be pretty sparkly! One of the field girls was cute too. "You handsome man ",, so that's how you win your way across Lao? Lol. The Brahma farm,,interesting they called it a ranch,,somebody must have been a fan of cowboy movies. Lol . Looking forward to the road trip, will be interesting to see. Did you ever find out which strain of covid you guys had? Well,,stay safe my friends,,Ttyl,,,Marlon
Rural life on your doorstep - luv the track on the way in between everything and that “ hall “ like shop / market - happy people - happy times 👌 thanks T
Have you guys been to the Saiyabuli area?
Funny you should ask.. no, but that's where we are heading next week 👌😁
Hi Guys The grasses they where shredding where either elephant grass (so called because the elephants can hide in it) reaches 2 meters in a couple of months. It could also be Israeli AKA sweet grass but that grows at half the speed. The mangoes are called mango apples, and come from Thailand.
@12:08 is that background noise a type of cicada/insect or is that something else entirely?
The sales lady knows most Farangs love keeping beared chin.
Bok choy is now $4 for a tinny bunch in Brisbane. Looks like what they were picking.
Great videos. Great info. Really enjoy your work.
Took a cruise from Vientiane down the Mekong was tons of fun
Lao Lao ( moonshine) is better than beer mate
Morning Todd/Neenee, M8 owsitgarn, 😄wow all this so close to Vientiene,love it. The village roads/tracks, said it before but the open gutterless roads just seem to have a relaxing vibe about them. Even the footage through the built up areas/cities seem to exude a chilled sorta vibe,done well Todd ,thx M8 Ron
Maaate... Howzitgarn! 😝👍
@@NowinLao maaate,nah yeah,yeah nah, garn goood mate😝😜👍🤜
Greetings from Canada! I enjoyed this episode, Todd. My wife is from Ban Hom. We visited seven years ago.
Next vid is from there also Clarence 👌
To think you have all this Farm Land in lao is truly amazing. The homes are picture perfect. So much to see there. Harriet and i hope to make the Lao trip happen. Harriet and I always look forward
to more and more videos. It never grows old. You are an amazing storyteller, Todd. Namaste !!🙌 Jim and Harriet. Richmond, Va.
Sokdii Pi Mai Lao Jim & Harriet 💚
Happy Lao New Year 😁
Great vid. Hard to believe it's so close to home. 🙏👍
It is.. great little area.
Thanks mate
That was an interesting little adventure. Cheers
It's always the same isn't it......we love to travel to far flung places but completely ignore and miss out on what's on our doorstep.
You're right about the coconut palms though.....could almost be the Philippines. 👍👍😊
Inside update on the block behind our house Peter.. They've started to plant coconut palms. Nice! 😎
Wow that's good news......I envy you! 👍😊
What a wonderful lady at the coffee stand.
Hello Tod Ban home is my home town
Proper lane exploring there mate - I do the same but on my bike, just wandering about and seeing real life away from the city, but like you, only 15 minutes away - its crazy the speed at which it changes from city to village aint it. I love the way the people get so chilled out of the city - the universal language of a smile and signs, cos they just look daft at my attempt at Isaan Thai lol. I love these vids on "whats on your doorstep". I dont know why but the Mekong looks so much better from the Lao side. Songkran is similarly dampened here too, so we are off down for the annual Kanchanaburi trip - chilling on a riverboat for a few days then off to pay respects on the railway - hopefully the authorities will allow the Oz army guys to lead the services this year. Keep the beers on ice mate, wont be too long till the bollox is eased.
Happy New year mate. Have z good one.. 🍺😁👍
As is usual now, UA-cam alerts are keeping me occupied on your channel early in the morning. Another great video from you Todd. Feels like I’m along with the both of you on this ride. What great looking homes along the way. 😳
Glad you're enjoying the show James 👍
🤗😉😀😃🙂😉🤗
Neenee, put your seat belt on
Please tell me, did you have to register your drone to fly there in Laos? I also noticed that in some videos from your trips to Thailand you fly your drone there, and registration in the land of smiles is really a pain in the arse, did you bother to do it, or just taking your chances?
Yes, you're supposed to. A quick Google search will show you where 👌
Just took my chances when in Thailand 🤞
Great video.
Is that background noise at the market ciladas or tree frogs?
Cicadas. Loud hey!
Your a nice guy tod happy new year Ok to you and your wife and be safe.
Thanks Lee. I keep telling Neenee I am 😁👍
Sokdii pi Mai to you too mate
Awesome
Hi beautiful country 🖐👍
👋
Thanks Tod, for yet another epic local adventure. We are always watching your vlogs and enjoy them immensely. We're in far western NSW, so the oceans of green and the mighty Mekong are always great to see. We only got to Nong Khai last Thai trip (pre-COVID), but I'd misplaced my passport so we couldn't visit Vientianne.
Red mangoes are good - but there hundreds of varieties of mangoes, though not many varieties are grown/sold in the west. The “wild mango” I had in india looked like a Kiwi, tasted like had a little lime & marzipan/bitter almond. Gorgeous. This video kills me Todd - you saying only 20 minutes to the city⁉️
Why does that kill you.. 🤔
@@NowinLao hmm, maybe an american figure of speech? Try: I am dumbfounded or gobsmacked that such views and rural settings are that close to the capital!
@@chrissonnenschein6634 Ahh.. ok. 👍 Yeah, it's not your average capital is it 😉
@@NowinLao 😅😅😅 No it isn’t. There is that❣️
Looks like some serious, modern farming going on out there. And happy farm workers too. Great to see!
