Update

Were now in Luang Prabang. We have counted at least thirty Wats on our map of the city. we spent some time at one of them this morning helping them to stretch the new skin for their drum. It was fun. we just stood around the drum beating on it. then we went to the beach. The sand was really soft. (For those of you who are getting confused about there being a beach in a landlocked city, we were on the Mekong.) I spent a while building a loom out of sticks and weaving with it. Declan invented a game where you jump down a steep sand slope and try to go as far as possible.
