The mighty Mekong river

Just checked in Pakse south of Laos. what you see is the Mekong river from my hotel room. There has been a light pour since I arrived by plane 30 mins ago. The flight took 1 hour from Ventiane with Lao Air which uses the french ATR. I'm here to attend our usual bi monthly meeting which this time is held in the south of Laos, Pakse which is the capital of Champasack. Pakse is a booming city thanks to the fertile surrounding area like Paksong which is a well known coffee growing region of Laos. This is home to Dao Heung a well known coffee producer and manufacturing company of Laos. I'm here for 1 day before I head back to Ventiane tomorrow.
