A coffee break in Hongsa, Laos. Love the snacks, only pay what you
eat. You can cross the border from Nan province (Thailand) at
Huay Kon. More on this border crossing at the Nan guest-house site.
There is an authentic market near the bus stop serving local food.
The lovely Minsk 125 two stroke, a fun ride when it does. A breakdown is inevitable, but that shouldn't spoil the day. The Chinese scooters aren't any
better for that.
Vietnam is great on a motorcycle, beats the tourist bus any day...
