ok, photo's below are of our last day in hanoi, visiting ho chi minh's maulsoleum (tomb) and house/study






the pics are crap as it was too busy to be able to stop and take a picture!


above, his escape tunnel

above, the tomb





above, there was about 10 of these in a row but i was only able to get my camera out in time to catch the last 4 buddists!

above, this was just before we set off for laos, although putting on brave faces as we didnt know what was to come!! about 10 more vietnamese and no room to move! not nice!!
above and below, border into laos, which you had to walk down the hill and back onto your bus once paper work was complete!



above and below, went site seeing in vietienne, the capital of laos






above, roof of arc de triumph, below, the arc de triumph-vientienne!!!



me and tee decided to go down south to see the waterfalls and irrawaddy dolphins, pics below














stopping off on some rocks in the middle of the river between laos and cambodia we waited to see the irrawaddy dolphins!!
above and below, the two areas i spotted the dolphins, think id missed them in the pics though! they were too far away, near the cambodia side which we were not allowed to go near!

below, the second waterfall, i couldnt believe the volume of water flowing, and how fast it was!! kermit was impressed too!










above and below, think this was at pakse, stop over on the way back up to the north of laos, the fish sarm and kids trying to catch fish with weighted nets!
