Vang Vieng

Laos, 02. February 2025
Hot air balloon day! Ticked off the bucket list and what an experience! I did the sunrise tour which was amazing, I was with a group of French, a Dutch girl & a lady from NY. A lovely group to experience this with :). I learnt how it flies up the air and our pilot was so nice.
After the balloons we had a champagne breakfast. We exchanged our pics and chatted about the morning. A really lovely morning. I was feeling a bit anxious at the beginning of the ride but once it was up I was fine
A very tired Molly in this picture though
At breakfast you get given this certificate. A memory never to be forgotten
I had a nap when I got back and then we decided to go to the final lagoon. We had a fish spa for all of 5 mins before we found it was horrible and ticklish so we got out😂. Went and sunbathed in the lagoon and had a dip in the water. Booked my next stop to Vientiane
This lagoon was very touristy, but we found a quiet spot and chilled for most of the day. We came back and max, mina and Jake wanted to do the plane hike but I wasn’t feeling it so I had a relaxing afternoon and had a pedicure instead
This lady was super quick and efficient and now my toes look cute again. FaceTimed mum on my way home and showed her the hostel
Went back and had a little lay down before max and Jake came back to the dorm and woke me up to get ready for my final night in Vang 😂. We played beer pong with Archie too and then had a Big Mama sandwich before going out to a gin bar which was nice
After spending 2 weeks together basically joined at the hip, it’s time to separate tomorrow. Hopefully a reunion in Vietnam pending - I could stay in Vang and do more tipsy tubing but I defo need a few days to myself to recharge now
