On the way to Dien Bien Phu

Day 116
Sapa – Dien Bien Phu

At 7 am we came to the agency and had some breakfast in one of the local bars, while waiting for pick up.

As usual, pick up came 2 hours later, besides, it was a small mini van, packed with people, bags, smelly stuff and even puppies (which were in the box next to mine and were literaly pissing on my bagpack).


Besides of locals puking in the bags (due to the curves) and smelly laggage, the views actually were pretty nice :-D









In the middle of the road, mini van stoped due to some technical problems, and Juli with other men had to push...funny!

On the road again...



The driver finally has decided to change battery...


After the change, driving again..





In the evening, after the whole day (9 hours) in the mini van, we arrived to Dien Bien Phu (and it was a bus station!). We picked fist hotel we saw, in front of the station and then bought tickets to Muong Khoa, fist town in Laos.


The sunset and rice fields were really beautiful...it was the only beautiful thing in this town :-D






Tomorrow we have to catch the bus at 5.30 in the morning, terrible!!! :-D
