The Drive to Lipi

Author: DJ
31.03.2007

On the second day of our stay in Phone Thong District, we decided to visit Lipi and Khone Phapheng. We headed to Paske market to pick up fruits and snack for the long drive. There were some relatives from Pakse that wanted to go on the journey with us. I was very excited to go to Lipi for the first time in my life.

We made a stop to pick up more snack along the way. People would sell all sort of Lao dishes along the road near a bus stop.

Later, we ran into two elephants on their way to camp.

When we got the area where we can catch a boat to Don Det island, it was time for lunch. We ordered green papaya salad and green banana salad to go with our meat.
