While I’m not used to watching Quentin Tarantino films and was concerned The Hateful Eight was a very long movie, I found it surprisingly engaging with an immensely interesting plot.

 

Leaving on a Jet Plane

The Lao trip update on hold as I am going away today to London via Amsterdam.  Decided to do the trip only last Friday to attend a funeral tomorrow in the south of England.

 

“Monk Chat” and Learning at Wat May Suwannaphumaham

And other living quarters.

The Beautiful Wat Xieng Thong

One of the main attractions of Luang Prabang, Laos is its many Buddhist temples and monasteries, Wat Xieng Thong being the most important one. Some of its features are quite breath-takingly beautiful.
