Laos

I Crossed into Laos from Chiang Kong, Thailand. View across the border into Laos (Mekong river). It got off to a rocky start when I went to the ATM only to learn that I had apparently lost my debit card. I had already spent all but 14 of my emergency US dollars, mostly on visas.  Luckily I was still with Joyce who I did the Mae Hong Son loop with and she saved the day. I would later contact my Mom and have her Western Union me some money.
