Lonely and dreaming of the west coast...

I'm in Luang Prabang, Laos. It's pouring down rain and reminding me so much of home and all of the people I love there. This is a beautiful little city... scattered with temples and set along the banks of the Mekong River. There are gorgeous markets and groups of monks everywhere. Last night I walked past an internet cafe and saw 3 monks in their orange robes clustered around a computer screen. I plan to spend a couple of days here before taking the slow boat back to Thailand where I'll meet up with Stacia and another friend of mine, Tracey, and head up to the school at Kiew Sua. I will write more soon and hopefully update pictures too!
