In the mountains and karsts of Laos lies a small town called Vang Vieng, known for good kayaking, tubing and rock climbing. Being low season the river levels weren't high enough for exciting whitewater so we opted for some rock climbing instead. The area was gorgeous with sharp peaks shooting straight up hundreds of meters. They do hot air ballooning around the area too, which we had planned, but decided not to because a level of haze rolled in the night before and it wouldn't have been as pretty.
The rock climbing was a blast, although my arms felt the brunt of the hard work that afternoon. Even tying my shoes was a bit of chore the next day (maybe I need some more upper body training...)
We spent the rest of the day dodging the water fights around town from Songkran and relaxing on the river. Below are some pictures from the day.
