In these quiet days between our colorful trip to Luang Prabang and our upcoming journey to the islands of Southern Thailand, we have been dealing with such mundane matters as paying bills and arranging visas. We have however, had the opportunity this week to add two new members to our family here in Vientiane. Although we regularly get around town on foot or in tuk-tuks, Jen thought it might be a good idea if we had a couple of bicycles to handle those “in-between” journeys.
And so, we welcome our second-hand, two-wheeled, fraternal twins (one orange, one blue) with a spot of poetry. We have each written a haiku of welcome for our respective bikes.

Freedom from tuk-tuks,
That’s what "Rustov" means to me -
A rust-colored bike

Things have changed somehow
Is it uphill or downhill?
Boy do my legs hurt
Jen,
