near Muang Xai, local traffic problems
The road from Muang Xai to Luang Phrabang was in the construction phase when we passed it with a Pick-up truck. Previously, there was not road-connection to Luang Phrabang, it went all by boat. The truck got stuck in the mudd and blocked the steep road. A caterpilar had to push it up which took almost 3 hours.
