Tadlo Falls, Laos





After the 4,000 islands in the south of Laos (Lao without the 's' in local language) we took two local buses sharing a big tuk-tuk with some lao people, some ducks, two hens and a pig !! we arrived at Tadlo Falls, a pretty and remote village 2 hours away from Pakse. It's certainly a quiet place, with not much to do except for swimming in waterfalls and trekking, which is not too bad at all !! This is what we did, we got there at lunchtime and then we went uphill where we met some lao kids and we swum in the river with them and we played football !!!
Yesterday we did a 20km trip with flipflops !! we wanted to rent a bicycle, but there were none, so we decided to walk !! We swum in the highest waterfall I've ever seen in my life with some other kids and then we walked under the sun for 4 hours stopping in strange villages and drunk warm Pepsi that expired in 2001 !!
This morning we have taken a bus and now we are in Pakse waiting for our 'vip bus' to vientiane that will get us there tomorrow morning !!! hmmm.... will see !!

despues de las 4,000 islas al sur de Laos (sin 's' en laosiano) fuimos a Tadlo Falls, unas cascadas muy bonitas a dos horas de camino de Pakse. Alli nos hemos banyado en cascadas saltando de acantilados con ninyos locales que nos han ensenyado donde, tambien hemos caminado un monton bajo el sol que hace (por cierto, estamos morenisimos !!), hemos jugado al futbol con chavalines locales y hemos tomado los mejores batidos de pinya de la zona !! era tan tranquilo que nos ibamos a dormir a las 9 de la noche !!
esta manyana nos hemos ido de alli y ahora estamos en Pakse esperando a un autobus que sale esta noche para Vientane, la capital donde intentaremos conseguir un visado para Myanmar !! ya veremos.
estoy divinamente !
