Like I said in my last post I got to Vientiane super early.
A very nice city in the morning, Most of it is right along the sea wall (river wall i guess you could call it there) and everyone including their grandparents and pets were out exercising. People were walking, jogging, running, skipping, biking, skateboarding, standing, swinging their arms, every possible form of physical movement.
It was pretty cool to see and there are definitely some other countries in the world who should take up their idealism. After walking along the park by the wall I decided to try and check in somewhere and have a nap since i had such a bad sleep that morning.
I went to probably about 10 or 15 hostels and every single one of them was full and I had to come back at checkout and see. So after wandering around for an hour or so with my backpack i decided i would just find some breakfast and wait to see if anyone checked out. I thought it was a good plan until I realized that no places were even open yet.
I gave up hope and decided to start checking hotels to see if they had any rooms. After checking a couple and hearing the prices I decided against it even though they were only $20.
So I went through the hostels one more time and found one that was part of a rental company that I used back when I was in Thailand. I went up and say the dorm rooms and they were actually pretty nice and very clean. So I dropped my stuff and had a nap. After waking up I made friends with two of the people who I were staying in the same room.
Sorry for the lack of pictures I keep forgetting to take pictures of just the city but there will be more of the places I went in the city.
