Beautiful KUANG SI Waterfall

KUANG SI WATERFALL
We made the trek to the waterfall via the scoot which was about 30 kms north of Luang Prabang.  The falls begin with shallow pools atop a steep hillside. These lead to the main fall with a 200 foot cascade.  We left fairly early in the morning to beat the "korean" rush.   We stopped half way for a coffee/tea, not because we were thirsty but because we were freezing our butts off from the early morning scooter ride. But it was well worth it!

Sweating just a tad bit

Now for the 30 km trek back to town.  Stopped a few times to take some pics of the local life.
