So my host family has some land outside of Vientiane where they grow different kinds of fruit and raise fish to sell. We took a picnic lunch out there last weekend. It was so nice to get out of the city and drive around the peaceful countryside.
Toui, my host brother picking a ripe papaya.
The green ones are also picked to make Papaya Salad...a favorite spicy Lao food.
The picnic lunch, spread out on giant banana leaves was complete with grilled fish, sticky rice, and papaya salad (the green shredded looking thing). The woman in the pink shirt is my Mae--host mom.
This is Pa--my host father chilling on a hammock by the fish pond.
