Weird Stuff #2

So people have been telling me that the western world is speeding past me as I sit in Laos, a relatively quiet and peaceful country. However, I can tell you without doubt that Laos is a happening place too! I hear Australia just got the Apple iPhone? Well, here in Laos they have had the iPhone for ages. Not just one version, but 4 are available at this store:


They still know about The Olsen Twins. At a 300 year old sacred temple in Vientiane, the capital of Laos I was able to purchase these 2 dolls of them in attractive army fatigue.


Laos' favourite Beer, 'Beer Lao' is actually really good- and longnecks are around US$1. They also do a pretty good dark ale. It is without doubt, "Full of Taste.. Full of Strength".



They also have a fantastic and very progressive travel agent that understands each traveller's specific needs...


OK OK, so it is obvious by now that I was going to write a completely different and interesting post but ran out of time, as usual. In case any of you give me crap, I have purchased this T-Shirt, which I found in a shopping mall in Vientiane.
