The Girls Are Back In Town!

so no more nights on the tiles for me! Mabel and Diana in the overnight bus to Lao, for me last night I was out with Phil and Mark, as usual first stop Sisterz then on to Champions, a bite to eat on the way home and wait for the girls to arrive this morning, Mike very kindly offered to pick them up from the bus station and drop Diana off at 388,

Riza with her in bus book, all to soon time to sleep the trip away,

over the Friendship bridge and into Lao,

Mabel and Riza in the back of a 3 wheeler, all the girls went out for the day after dropping off their passports at the embassy,

but it then turned into a shopping trip, well no surprises there then!

but first the embassy, number 206 on the board, the girls got 351, so more than a bit of a wait, slight delay to the shopping!

the wait must have seemed endless,

but after that it was time for food in a roadside restaurant, but it was near the hotel, 100 baht for a bowl of noodles it was not cheap,

then off to bed, the three girls shared a room to keep the cost down,

goodnight from Diana.

the next day shopping (again) then for the evening meal they went to this riverside restaurant,

and of course some cocktails to wash away the rigours of all that shopping!

then the girls got ready to party the rest of the night away, it was disco time,

Diana ready to go to disco,

this is the hotel they stayed at, the room was 1,200 as there were three of them sharing a room,

and Diana ready to pick up the passports the next day,

by all accounts the hotel was nice, Diana said it was better than the hotel we stayed in last time we were in Lao,

and then a bit of sight seeing,

but notice the overcast sky, like here in Pattaya lots of rain,

and like here when it rains it really does!

the girls used one of these 3 wheelers to get around town, the Lao version of a tuk-tuk,

next stop the coach home,

and a map on case you get lost,

all aboard!

and settle down for the over night bus ride, well they all enjoyed themselves, but it is a bit of a tiring trip so Diana has had a few extra hours sleep this morning, then along to Friendship, pick up the food for the Saturday afternoons get together, see you all then!
