We've been to the Mekong River (แม่น้ำแม่โขง) which is the border between Thailand and Laos many times, but we've always stayed on the Thai side of the border. Joyance's dad grew up in Bung Kan right along the Mekong and has roots in both Thailand and Laos. In spite of a lot of sneering by Thais toward Laos, we really wanted to waddle over to the other side. Towel to get his flippers on some Beer Lao; Sam to explore the old temples; Joyance to discover the formerly closed and scarredland of her paternal grandparents.
