note on typos
My droid doesn't display a cursor on the Blogger site, so if I proffread and find an error, the only way to correct it is to erase back to the error. unless it's really bad, I'm just too lazy to do that.

Luang Prabang, Laos
Flew in from Hanoi this AM and found a nice guesthouse near the Mekong River for$qp/night. While in Hanoi I asked a motorcycle taxi guy what xe om meant in Vietnamese- he told it the translation is "hold on tight you round-eyed imperial running dog, I'm going to try to kill us both" :-)

May 15: T-minus 40 hours

The India train reservation system is a frustrating experience until you get the hang of it.
Start off with , it's a good overview.
We'll have to explode the packs at least once more to add/subtract stuff, and then midnight we leave for the Des Moines airport.
I've started my Ho Chi Minh look, but I think it's more of the Colonel Sanders look.

Tipping Point; May 13
In every trip we get to the point when we may not have everything done, we may be missing stuff, not have all the confirmations we need-- but we have enough. Tickets, visas,passports and enough clothes. We can go.

In Iowa May 10

We packed up the 5th wheel with bicycles and motorcycle, hooked up the pick up and left Pecos, Texas. Two days later we backed into Carol's daughter's driveway.
Now we're frantically trying to get to final items done, flight out of Jordan,(bus through Syria-not a good idea), need a Lonely Planet for India,trying to back up stuff on the computer and still need to call Verizon and suspend our service.
