With all that, the ride was not nearly as bad as we thought, it was made fun by all the kids waving to us from along the road. We made it to the village where we thought the waterfall was, and they had us pay to park our bikes ($0.20 each) and then we went up the river in a boat for about 5min. When we did make it to the waterfall, we were a little disappointed to see it was almost completely dry, so use your imagination when looking at the photos.

We worked really hard, so use your imagination...
For our first day in Luang Prabeng, we decided to rent bicycles and ride to one of the three waterfalls nearby. After passing over some cruisers, we decided to rent "mountian" bikes so that we would be able to change gears for the hills. We rode 15km out of town to the closest waterfalls with a lot of hard work as the ride was almost all uphill, and our back gears did not really work. Noah also had a seat that could not be raised, so his legs had extra work.
With all that, the ride was not nearly as bad as we thought, it was made fun by all the kids waving to us from along the road. We made it to the village where we thought the waterfall was, and they had us pay to park our bikes ($0.20 each) and then we went up the river in a boat for about 5min. When we did make it to the waterfall, we were a little disappointed to see it was almost completely dry, so use your imagination when looking at the photos.

Today we will go to the other waterfall (that most of our travel buddies went to yesterday), so hopefully we will have better pictures tomorrow.
