January 29, 2011 Last day in Luang Prabang, Laos

Decided to do some things on our list since it was our last day in Luang Prabang.
First, though, breakfast - I was kind of crabby.

One thing I wanted to do was to go over the long bamboo bridge.  It cost 4,000 kip to go (round trip).  There was a nice sign explaining that the bridge has to be rebuilt every year after the rainy season and the money helps pay for that, for the time of the people who build it.  It also reminded people that 4,000 kip was only $.50 - something I think travelers lose sight of.  Was worth every kip.

The bridge made me happier.

Can't stop loving the animals.  Triple kitten cuteness.  For non-cat people, you can just notice the planters, the lovely brick sidewalk, the gate on the store front.
