set off early again – went to bank. Then fresh market (photos).
Then central market and got Daisy her chopsticks – then on to silversmiths…
…then drop Daisy and went on alone to Ban Phanom (textile village) – a bit touristic but lovely view of river and Lu minority. Bought Daisy a blue shawl & I bought coasters and water holders.
Then back to Villa and enjoyed a couple of hours relaxing in Villa…
…before off to airport where I narrowly avoided having to pay for the flight twice but only by surrendering my tickets from Vientiane to Pakse!
The story of the airline tickets mix up and how we prevented a minor bureaucratic error escalating is told in a separate piece written some year’s back – click here.
Arrived only 35 minutes late. Wah Bain took us to office to sort out tickets and Carol Cassidy shop to sort out giftie for mum. Then on to Settha Palace for European dinner & early night!
