I missed the monks this morning. I slept in but was up in time to see the street lights dim and the sun rising. It is going to be a very, very, hot day today.



Luckily I have a lot of administration work to do today.

So this blog will be mainly pictures as I didn’t go out till late.







I've brought along a big telephoto lens and between work I went out onto the balcony and became a voyeur.



Opposite the hotel is a large temple and college.



In the distance I can see Thailand across the Mekong River.



Spent time watching the world go by from the sixth floor of the hotel. Vientiane is very low rise so we have a wonderful panoramic view.





Later that night when everyone returned from the office we went back to Ansara for dinner.





There was another night market.

It was a lot smaller than on Saturday night.



















On the way back I even found some mannequins.





Everyone was feeling pretty tired, so a slow wander back to the hotel to sleep, perchance to dream.
