After spending about half a week in Luang Prabang, it was time to say goodbye to our 
friends and move on. We bought tickets for a night bus to Chiang Rai, Thailand. Even though we had to say goodbye to Laos, I had the pleasure to meet a family friend from home in Chiang Rai! What are the odds that someone you know from home will be at the same time/place about 6,000 miles away? This is what happened during my trip 🙂 Welcome to Chiang Rai!
