Don Det

Left Pakse early this morning to enjoy the slightly cooler temperatures whilst exploring Laos second world heritage area, Wat Phou, an ancient Khmer temple (similar to Angkor Wat but without the crowds).



Then it was off to Don Det, 4000 islands, the last stop on my trip in Laos.

Hired a bike for 10,000 kip and cycled 40 mins over to the next island, then a short boat trip out to the middle of the Mekong to see the rare Irrawaddy Dolphins, shame there is not many of them left.

Done a spot of fishing, was hoping to catch a giant Mekong catfish but only managed to snap my line twice and bugger the reel.

Been good to chill out here after all the travelling but will be sad to say goodbye to everyone as we go our separate ways tomorrow.

Cambodia here I come!
