Short update, just really short, to keep our very loyal followers 😄 up to date. 2 days ago we went for a beautiful hike in Vang Vieng, yesterday we then finally entered into the Laos mountains. Yesterday was a really nice day, and still quite ok too. We stayed for the night somewhere in the mountains with hot springs, but without decent internet (the way it should be, isn't it?) so no blogpost... Today we had another mountain ride, and while we climbed 1000m in total yesterday, we did 2000m today. Which is a serious workout with a heavy, fully loaded tourbike. So: too tired and also too late now for a full update. That will be for one of the next days, when we are relaxing in Luang Prabang, where we should arrive tomorrow.

On the top of the world in Vang Vieng, around 720m high and looking down at the valley a good 500m lower |

An idea of the mountains we cycle through. The road below is where we came from. |

Today was mostly up, but also luckily some downhills |
That's it for today, more to come soon.
