Fishermen, along the Mekong, Laos

Fishermen joking and relaxing after a day's work on the banks of the Mekong river, Luang Prabang, Laos.

 

I visited in 2009 as part of my ongoing journey 'along the Mekong' in stages; this section starting from the golden triangle in the north to Luang Prabang during the Buddhist new year in April (more pics to follow).

 

One thing I had been told before travelling was that Laos people are friendly and very relaxed. VERY relaxed. And true to that I experienced only kind and gentle hospitality (and occasionally a little curiosity), but whatever they were doing working or else they certainly always were ready to stop for a laugh and joke.
