This is all the way down south in Laos. Took me 37 hours to get here and left me quite tired. A mini bus, a big bus, a truck and another bus down to Don Kong and a boat the next day down to Don Det. Did meet Ita before she left for Cambodia today. Everybody is moving all over the place because the visa is never long enough. I wonder why they do not simply give you 3 months like they do in Malaysia or Singapore? And it is even free over there! Laos wants 30 us$ + 1 us$ from Germans. Every country has a different fee to pay &#8211; strange! Will stay a few days down here &#8211; it is quite relaxed along the river.<\/p>\n<p>A few pictures from the morning walk in the village. Still people are on the way home from the dancing in the night. Most are sleeping and some start preparing for the next night of celebration. Everything is so simple and peaceful &#8211; needed after the firework and dancing the whole night.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/225.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/> I love that green on the old fences in the village<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/226.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"419\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"> <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/227.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"347\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/>Good morning <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/228.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"349\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/>&#8216;Ello Doggy <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/229.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/>The house of one of the Shamans of the village <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/230.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/>View towards the street in and out of the village <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/231.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"436\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"> <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/232.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"> <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/233.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"409\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"> <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/234.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"417\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/> Preparing the chicken &#8211; while the other chicken watch&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/235.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"406\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"> <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/236.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"400\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"> <br \/>Getting rid of all the left over firework paper<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/237.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"398\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/>Morning wash<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/pix\/2013\/pai\/238.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"403\" alt=\"Dapilu 2013\"><br \/>The Shaman does some chicken ritual.
