The first 16 minutes of the documentary are on Laos. It begins in northern Laos near the border with China with a look at the ethnic minority group called the Ekor. It's a fascinating look into their lives and customs.

Mekong: The River of Nine Dragons
Wonderful documentary on not just the Mekong River but really a profile on the countries that the river flows through.

Bienvenue à Festival Lao 2014
The Lao community in Quebec spearheaded by Lao Buddhist temple, Wat Thepbandol, organize one of Canada's largest Lao festivals. One that brings people from not only Quebec but from other parts of Canada and even visitors from America. This year it was held in July in Sainte-Julienne, Quebec, about an hour north of Montreal. Here are a couple of videos from LaoTVCanada covering the event. C'est une bonne fête!

Flowering Ideas
During my December 2013 trip to Laos after having witnessed so many pretty flowers and plants while I traveled, I ended up buying a few books on the topic while I was over there. Of course this was mostly because I wanted to know the names of the plants I was admiring. However, along the way, I found books that would provide even more information than just names.
Have a look, may be these will interest you too?

A Vientiane Night Out
Just going through some more pictures from last year's trip to Laos. Found a couple of pictures that I thought I'd share.
Sitting at an outdoor patio at a restaurant in Nampu. A live band wonderfully performed both in Lao and English. Enjoying some thirst quenching Beer Lao along with a beautiful backdrop with the fountain all lighted up. Gorgeous night out!
