Stunning views from a beautiful hotel. in a beautiful city of Pakse. Todd , I wear jocks too and live in the States . I don't get it either. I wish I could find a pair of shoes like yours. I guess it's a reason for Harriet and I to visit, as we will, when we can. Thank you for allowing us to tag along 😍😍 Be Well my friend. Jim and Harriet. Richmond, Va.
Ahh the ol Pluto Pups Ay........Dagwood Dogs, Battered Savs, scallops(potato) Chicko Roll too Todd, don't think these are available other than Oz. What about the beef croquet and the Dim sim ,fish/chip shop style,hahaha memories .Footage was great Todd,nice view from the room,cheers ron
Lmao,,,Todd my brother,,,lol,, you make everything entertaining! I never get tired of the market walks. Jocks,,,I wonder if that's not because of Jockey brand undies? Jockey brand was probably around during WWII Most of us quit calling them shorts after 15 or so. Bvd brand boxer/briefs is the only way to fly. Fairly airy,,,but keeps the boys properly snug,,but not so snug they cut the swimmers off,,lmao lol the food looked interesting,, Pluto pops would probably be what we call corn dogs. My fave is an occasional chili cheese corn dog. They were invented at some state fair long ago,,,someone dropped a frankfurter into the corn batter,,and boom! Probably,,,,,no guarantees.You are absolutely correct about a hot dog coming in a roll. .Thanks for the lols! Be careful,,Ttyl,,,Marlon
I noticed everything got stretched in the Philippines too.....always thought it had something to do with the humidity. Maybe wrong. I always really like the look of Pakse.....very nice drone shots. 👍👍😊
🤗🙏🏼! Loved the video, especially the funny bits 😂 thank you. Those look like corn dogs, the batter is made with corn flour, usually; popular at the fair’s, in US. Take care.
@@NowinLao what if i start an NGO in a nice remote waterfall area by a village and help build education class house and backpacker hostel. can i theoretically go there anytime i wish, as operations director? i'll put up $$$, help teach english and small business economics and get the village working in tourism. i just want a place to go to as a backup plan. does NGO operations managers get long term visa?
@@smithsamson7342 you can still become a permanent resident, live here and come and go as you please. There are long term leases available.. 30+ years, but you will never own it.. you could always marry Lao 😉
A few minutes from my gaff. Familiar territory. The CBR tuktuk driver is a good guy. They're not rubbernecking at the felang; just the haircut mate:) Cheers Todd enjoy Pakse.
The stretching in the elastic is 100% caused by water. I once forgot to wash my swim shorts after a holiday. Th next season the elastic was turned to dust
Had a Dunkin Dog on Portland (vic) foreshore carnival over New Years, cost 2 bucks to get into carnival and dog was 7 bucks, sister and I only went because neither of us had one in years so think you did well there at 50c LOL
Some patients tell Cyrus they've been making mistakes at work. Some tell her they can "barely turn on the TV. 'All I want to do is stare at the ceiling.' " Others say they are more irritable.Enjoy ur trip 🌴🌳🍓🌰🌳🌻🌷🌷🌳🌼🌼
Always hard to find my size, especially shoes. I wear a size 13 wide US. When I travel, I need to bring everything that I might need. The hot dogs dipped in batter on a stick over here are called corn dogs. Great videos, as always, mate. Stay safe.
I wear Bonds Comfy Undies and never an issue washing at home in Aus. However at our home in Viet Nam my sister-in-law does the washing by hand and she puts a bucket load of detergent in the water and then after rinsing she then wrings them out like she's strangling a chook, that affects the elastic in them.
We put it down to the sun with the elastic. I'm down to my last 2 pairs of jocks. I bought two pairs of Katmandu quick dry underwear ($25 each, on sale from $50 Claire gave me shit about them) and they are amazing. 6 days till PCR test, we are excited but also don't want to leave.
The sun... How many bloody days do you leave them out there lol. We do have a sun in Australia remember. Not sure that is the problem for us mate.. kinda leaning toward how much detergent is used or the type of detergent. Still no definite answer yet 🤔 $50 jocks!? well well Mr fancy pants.. I hope they're good for 7 days at a time. I have no idea why Claire would give you shit mate 😐🙄
@@NowinLao I think the Sun is hotter here, I know it feels like it's melting my skin off sometimes. This is from all knowing Google Heat will degrade the elastic band until it stretches out of shape and stays stretched. Continual wearing will make it even worse. This happens when the elastic in the waistband gets stretched out of shape over time. It's especially common with underwear that has a thick elastic waistband like boxer shorts. Bonds do have thick bands.
Hot dogs in batter in the states we call it corn dogs , they use corn meal batter which has a sweetness that blends with the hot dog and a mustard dip, You have to be careful with the point of the stick and push the hot dog up the point to eat , Peace.
@@rememberingme983 Same water, but some have commented using too much detergent may be a factor in why his is happening. Maybe they are a little too free with the detergent... hmmm

Another great video guy's, should of had a couple of beers with your pluto dog or sausage on a stick, cheers from Australia.
The old 'french' architecture is really nice. I could see myself parked on one those verandas for the day and just people watch. Cheers mate.
Ooh, corn dogs and bubble tea. Pakse looks nice in the dining light and clean too.😁
when I first arrive in pakse from Cambodia that is the hotel I stay at love the views, look like they redone the Mekong River banks thanks for sharing
Amazing 😄
Hi Todd Love the videos, yes it is the water, had the same problem with rubber in Thailand. Like you mask where did you get them. Thanks Larry
Kids in the U.S loves corn dog easy to eat and it tastes good2.

We wear jocks and socks. It keeps the family jewels restrained, not flopping around.

Lol @ the “ hotdog”.. we call those “ Corndogs” up here in Canada.. it just proves that one can deep fry anything and it’ll taste good 😉

jocks in the dryer will wear the elastic fast
With a climate like Laos has, very few have driers. We don't. Can't be that 😉

Yes Todd.
I lived in Non Khai for a couple of Months.
Lost 10 kl due to lot of Chilli
My Jocks all fell off its Normal
Been in Laos 6 years, clearly no problem with effect of water on elastic for me.
Do you do your own washing or somebody else?🤔
@@NowinLao I do my own, but what's the difference? It's the same water, isn't it?

Yep jocks is what we call 'em. Underwear is ..... tricky here. 🤣🤣🤣 Here meaning Cambodia of course!
Sorry mate can’t back you up on this occasion.. bonds shorts for me gives you more storage! 😂😂
Always have been and always will be a jocks man. Cheese Dogs. Hmmm. 👍👍
