We woke up with some tremendous shoelaces. We find it difficult to get to the restaurant for breakfast but it is worth it to have a terrace overlooking Mount Kinabalu. We visit the botanical garden of the Park. It is quite good, there are carnivorous plants. It is a small walk in the middle of the jungle.

Laos, known as "the kingdom of the million elephants" is one of the most welcoming and beautiful countries. Golden temples, orange robes, rice fields, jungle, mountains, coffee, waterfalls, the mighty Mekong River, spectacular cities such as Luang Prabang (the former capital of Indochina), Khmer archaeology, ethnic and cultural diversity, gastronomy - all these and more are the attractions Laos has to offer the traveller and make each trip unique.
