Please stick to the rivers and lakes

When Boy is away, they have to do all this work for Visa's and Entry.  

It's something I'm not very knowledgable about-  

Himself does all the paperwork / requirements / everything when we travel.  I turn up. 

While they are in Bangkok they had to leave the country to renew or extend their visa.  the initial plan had been to travel to Vietnam but

 it turned out that the Visa requirements for an American are different from those of a Brit.    

Laos it was. 

I had never heard of Laos... and I awaited hearing from them to see where they had landed. 

Wow. 

Is all I can say 

Riverside hotel, bears, amazing food.  

And quite, quite beautiful waterfalls.
