We’ve spent the last few days in Luang Prabang, a beautiful mountain town in northern Laos where many residents have stories of meeting President Obama when he visited in 2016.
A highlight of our visit was crossing the Namkhan River on elephants. It was amazing.
We leave for the airport later today for the final leg of our trip.
