Lao…the Land of Slow Boats

Here we are in lovely Luang Prabang. Just arrived tonight after 2 days and 16 hours on a smoker-infested boat. A little worse for wear as Jeff picked up Becca’s stomach issues but we are here and looking forward to enjoying Lao.

We will post some pics and stories in the next day or two….so stay tuned. See ya soon!!!

    Take care of yourself Jeff. Get well and enjoy your time in Lao. Sorry to hear about the smokers…you should have tossed them overboard.

    The boat sounds LOVELY! What to do but keep on drifting……Sorry to hear about the stomach issues…drink and rest…orders from your mother!
    We are so anxious to receive new pics and descriptive entries from you two…Are there alot of people changes from one country to another? Are they warm, gracious and english-speaking…..It wasn’t so long ago that we were all over their countries with war as our purpose. Any reactions from that perspective?
    Taek care and we wait anxiously to hear about your journey….Love Momz

    Ok, my class submitted a HYSTERICAL reply today (remedies for your sickness) and it’s nowhere to be seen! Ugh! Did you see it by any chance?

  5. […] Please take some time to read the recent comment by our favorite K-1 Class in Sammamish, Washington. They have provided a list of remedies for our travelling ills that rivals a Letterman Top Ten list. Thanks to Mrs Jaross and the kids for their great input. […]

    Anna,

    the BLOG reply from your class is priceless…those of us who are educators know that kids always have the best advice and ideas…if only the adults would pay attention. I’m for the 7-up and sleep. Keep those Jaross’ K-1 Bloggers thinking.

    Becca’s Mom
