Savannakhet
A few days late, I know... :)
Spent 3 days in Savannakhet with Chris and Claudia.
The town turned out to be pretty depressing overall.
It is blessed with a good quantity of surviving french buildings, but most of them are in pretty bad shape. We all got the feeling that that this town used to be a lot more important and lively then it is now.
This was also the first town in Laos where we definetly noticed beggars, I don't know what's so special about Savannakhet in that regard, but they didn't seem to exist elsewhere. Strange.
At the end of our time in Savannakhet is when we parted ways with Claudia, she was heading back to Bangkok. Chris and I were heading back to Tha Kaek for only a day or 2.
