Vang vieng is a backpackers town if there ever was one. It is famed throught south east asia for it's 'tubing'. Tubing literaly consists of sitting in a tractor tyre inner tube and floating down the river, great fun in the sun. In Vang vieng however it is slightly different, the river banks are lined with bars serving unbelievabley cheap drinks. Each bar has either a 'swing' or a zip line, the sort of thing that throws you in to the water from anything up to about 8 metres in the air and would be about as legal as cannablism in the uk. Needless to say we all LOVED it, as does literaly everyone.
We later enjoyed an evening sampling the local nightlife before boarding yet another bus, this time to the town of Luang Phabang.
