		<description>Tim, 

Looks like I just missed you.  I was in LP in mid August for a few days.

Great post.

Anyway, I&#039;m back in action and will be submitting some more stuff soon...</description>

		<description>What a beautiful and evocative post, Tim.  I enjoyed reading it -- it made me feel  connected to you and Allana all the way on the other side of the world.  I had coffee at Joma my first morning in Luang Prabang after exploring the morning food market.  And, by the way, that staircase with the silver nagas is one of the things I remember most vividly from Luang Prabang... that and accidentally eating buffalo skin paste on seaweed.  Oh my.  

Best wishes for your travels.  Please send all my love to Allana (and to Mara when you see him).

		<description>OK, this settles it. You will one day see me for the Mekong semester. Someday, probably when I take a gap year between high school and college. Of course, that&#039;s about four years away, but still. 

I&#039;ll be there.</description>
