Our First Day In Laos

Today for breakfast I had spicy tomato omelette with fruit and yogurt and homemade passion fruit jam on crossont.

This is a picture of the river in Laos, it is a really long river and takes a few days to get across.

In the morning we went to Big Brother Mouse which is a place where Laos students come there to learn English.

I talked and worked with the children there. It was fun. 

My favourite thing I did today was the dodgems because it was fun crashing into each other!

Two people had to sit in each car so me and Matthew sat in one and Yasmin and my mum sat in the other. 

We crashed into just about everyone but mostly my sister.

For dinner we went to a restaurant called Tamerind and ate a lot of food. This is a drink that is a bit sour.

This is a lime drink.

The first food that came was a dish were you had to make a ball of rice and then dip it in one of the dips. The left ones are spicy and the right ones are not. The lower down right one is really smokey. The seweed is what you add to the ball of rice.

The dish on the right has buffalo meat, Laos sausage, vegetables, eggplant and some rolled up nuts in a leaf.

This is a bowl of sticky rice.

This is some cured pork which you dip in the sauce.

This is a bowl of Laos soup, it is scrumptious.

This is some banana with Tamerind and coconut. It is a dessert.

On the way back we saw the night market 

The night market was busy and it was cool in the night.
