Subject: RE: 10.16.14 Sunday Funday!No "training" as have a cold but I did do a four-hour jungle trek that worked some muscles I haven't used in a while! The route is a "short cut" between two villages (you would have to know the state of roads in much of Laos to understand how a four-hour trek could be a shortcut ) and involved quite a bit of slalom down muddy slopes, scrambling up rocks and slippery wooden ladders. I was planning a side trip to the Plaim of Jars area about 8 hours south of here but cancelled it as there is a big festival here in Luang Prabang tonight involving floating lanterns on the river that should be cool to photograph. Hoping I will be feeling healthy enough to get in a run or two over te next few days--it's a beautiful place for it. |
