Luang Prabang Aktivität

We're planning a trip to Luang Prabang, Nong Khiaw, and Muang Ngoi for about 11 days. We're thinking of spending 3 nights in LP, then 5 nights in Nong Khiaw and Muang Ngoi, and then 3 nights again in LP. Does this sound like a good plan?

I'm trying to identify a mountain in Saravan province near the border of Savannakhet province, close to the Xe Lanong river and the villages of Choiavieng and Houn, with coordinates 16°08'21"N 106°34'28"E, but it's missing a name on old and modern maps I've found.

Located in Luang Prabang, the Indigo Cafe has good wifi by Lao standards, making it great for remote working. It is a good option for someone looking for a place to charge their laptop, connect to the internet, and get some work done in a relatively quiet environment.

I recently got hair extensions removed at a salon in Luang Prabang and the hairdresser gave me a shampoo with a neck and shoulder massage that included my collarbone and breasts. I felt uncomfortable and violated, but I'm not sure if this is a normal part of the service or not. I've only been to a few salons here so far and I'm still trying to figure out the local customs.

I'm an Italian retiree living in Luang Prabang for 5 years, looking for a hassle-free departure process. I've tried using the online Laos Departure Register but it keeps giving me an error, and I'm wondering if I can still find paper departure cards at the airport.

We're planning a trip to Laos and have a tight schedule. We've booked a hot air balloon ride at 5:30 am, but we're worried about making it to the 6 pm train to Bangkok that same day. We need to get from Vang Vieng to Vientiane first, and we're not sure if we have enough time.

I'm planning a long stay in Luang Prabang starting November 1, and I'm thinking about not bringing any rain gear. I'm considering just getting wet or finding shelter if it rains. Is this a bad idea?
