HOUEI XAI - LUANGNAMTHA
I think more than anything it was the stream crossings I always remembered the most.
Then it was the people as usual..
Vieng Phoukha, the main street & centre of town.
Don Chai, still my fave village on the HX - LNT road.
Luang Namtha, the main street in 95.
MUANG SING
The Main Street
The Sing Thong Hotel & the only accommodation in town then.
The road Luang Namtha - Muang Sing
The dirt section LNT - Muang Sing.
On the road Luang Namtha - Muang Sing. Great people!
Akha village Luang Namtha - Muang Sing
Luang Namtha, the main street
Ah yes, those were the days....and who you would have never thought of publishing Laos guide maps back then.
