Day 7: Vang Vien

I walked across one of the foot bridges over to the island and, though I'm not exactly sure, I believe I wandered into Smile Bar. Given that it was me and maybe two other people, it was clear that things wouldn't start happening till much later.
The bar was completely open-air and consisted of a series of huts clustered around a central fire pit. Although it's not clear in the photo, each hut had hammocks which allowed for some MAjor hanging out (pun intended).
Sadly, this was my one and only trip to the island bars and what I'm sure was a happening scene. I had the opportunity to go the following night but I pulled out my I'm-not-so-young-anymore-and-need-my-rest card. I probably missed a pretty interesting time....
