There are many opportunities ahead for you to be in Laos. The Lao New Year is celebrated every year, and it's always the same.
Except in modern times, people are out on the streets with beer bottles, standing on boxes like lunatics and dancing like strippers in public. The older generation told me that before I was born, the celebration was nothing like this in Vientiane, and Laos in general.
Are you hinting at an invitation
nang? I ACCEPT!!!
"Except in modern times, people are out on the streets with beer bottles, standing on boxes like lunatics and dancing like strippers in public." This is called having fun baby.
Obviously you're not the party type.
"The older generation told me that before I was born, the celebration was nothing like this in Vientiane, and Laos in general." I just want to touch on that real quickly here. Is it true that back in our parents' generation (I'm only you 'older brother' by a year or two, right) that everybody used to go to sleep as soon as the sun set? There were no such venues to linger after dusk. Man have times changed. My old lady got a bit of a culture shock the first time she went back to Laos. 'This isn't the Laos we left behind', she would say.
I think you old lady is other living in the country side ...In the old day..during the Vietnam, I did see so much happening..The bar....were every where.....and they open until morning..... if you want to ask about the olden day....about Laos you should ask me...The admin was other too young or not even born yet!!!!!
