here we are again!
internet .. we have to so good advantage in Pakse, who knows what will meet in the coming Sun
today we made a trek into the Bolaven platau. this is a plateau in southern Laos with many, many waterfalls, tea plantations and coffee-and a high moor.
went off early at 8am with 2's and 3 other touristic guides. We first drove an hour to the point made in between mount on the market, which was bought for our lunch. although the Asian markets we are now slowly gets used, impressed us with this special atmosphere again and again. Fish lie with wide mouths for sale on the ground and air Jappsen for women waving plastic bags flying by schweinskoefen them, children try their fruit baskets in the giant to bring the man - which varies between an air smell sweet, sour, fishy, depending on where one is at the moment.
we trekked through the first tee and coffee plantations and then through the jungle. Here we saw in the immigration run 4 very impressive waterfalls.
one of them went into the 150m deep, which is really huge! First, we marveled at the waterfall from afar as a whole, then it went to the foot of the waterfall and then directly to the cliff where the water herunterfaellt. because it really tingles in the feet when you stand there! yes, and the landscape was sooo incredibly amazing! mountains covered with jungle, where the rivers make their way through tracks (reminiscent in part to bissl New Zealand South Island). sometimes we ran away to do anything right, but simply criss-cross through the forest and jumping from stone to stone. that was fun, but was not as easy as it was damn slippery.
a highlight was the high moor. a moist landscape of sandstone with lots of pine, moss, lichen and sundew! Martin went from maybe! .. And he could tell our troop a lot about it and discovered some plants that were even unknown to our guide. why was martin as our "new" guide titled;)
so, although the tour was nice and we could see much, we were disappointed bissl that we had put some little time in particular. It was just vorran always fast and we did not really time to the environment can really suck. that's the problem with such tours booked.
unfortunately, and we are really very sad, we are here to be able to go trekking tours to rely on at all. because trails are not marked or not provided, so you always need a guide. and if you book one, then you also just booked the same tour complete ne .. actually we wanted several days in the national park hike in Laos and go sleep in the jungle, but this is soooo damn expensive! for 3 days 160us Dollars per person over our budget increase really. and alone we can not go there, because just no routes are signposted. We have already tried several times to people who offer the tours to talk and ne other option available to get in the national park, but NO WAY! (
.. it should be natural but each access, or
