Some of the baggage belonging to our fellow AirLaos passengers in Vientiane. Whatever gets the job done.
How confident are you about getting from point A to point B when flying out of an airport without a proper ceiling? Willing to put your life on it?
Spray off all the chunks then dab yourself dry. Perfect

One of the coolest places I’ve ever been to
Originally built as a Hindu temple in the 3rd century, Pha That Luang stands at 147-feet-tall and is a national symbol of Laos
Suck it Pha That Luang!
Patuxai – An Arch de Triumph replica that’s made of materials the U.S. had once upon a time supplied Laos with to pave airport runways.
The strange underbelly of Patuxai with depictions of what appear to be magic genies
The self-deprecating plaque at the base of Patuxai that describes it as a “Monster of Concrete”

Little sum’n to send back to ma and pa from the Patuxai gift shop
Sundown in Laotian town – taken through BluBlockers at a dumpy place known as Sunset Bar that’d been a stiff breeze away from tumbling down into the seasonally parched Mekong which it overlooked and overhung

I don’t know what any of this shit has to do with Buddhism, but here is some art from the temple in the previous pictures that features humans getting tortured in strange ways…
People being eaten by dogs, people getting sawed in half and a few possible decapitations
People on fire. Flaming tits on the right and an incendiary queef comin’ out that chick’s crotch in the middle there
Tongues being ripped out the mouths of naked folks
Get outta here with that torture porn shit
Stab fest
Door to the temple surrounded by slightly more civilized art
…except for this one with the guy’s head getting cut off in the front of the picture.
Finally, some serene, peaceful art – the type of shit I normally think of when I think of Buddhism

_____Temple in art – seemingly incomplete without naked people getting cut up and what not like in most of the other works at this place

Some scenery you might see when wandering from temple to temple
