Having now seen LuangPrabang I realise how lucky I am

I could waffle on for ever about how wonderful LP is but as pictures are worth a thousand words I will  simply offer mine and if should you want more then search in Google images.    Although my first hostel here was unbelievably cheap (6 euros per night including breakfast) it was infested by a lot of loud and inconsiderate American youth which, combined with compacted straw mattresses, resulted in my not sleeping for 2 nights ... however I have now found a charming guest house room for 15 euros per night which is ensuite and has a comfortable mattress ...needless to say i have already been out on a bike and city cycling here is just as thrilling as in Taiwan!
