Travels with Jackson

So we've decided it's time to break out of our 2 weeks of sedentary life (after our whirlwind trip to KM 52 and Vang Vieng).

So tomorrow we are purchasing our tickets to fly to Luang Prabang the weekend of February 9, and looking into flight and hotel availability to Xieng Khuang this weekend. Tom and Ghot and Mali will go with us to XK, and Walter, Alex and Eva are flying in from Rangoon to meet up in Luang Prabang.

Katherine has yet to go to XK. I've been twice, but am happy to go back...happy to go anywhere, actually.

I'm also looking for a weekend to go explore Khammouane a bit, and visit our Wildlife Conservation Society friends' research station in Bolikhamsay, but I'll leave Katherine and Jack home for that one.
