laos minority

look at their black teeth o.0

the laos children

look how playful they are!!! (notice that tv set at the end also)

we backtrack abit back to around tam duong town to visit the laos minority...we bought some sweets in a shop in the village so that we can offer to the kids when we see them...the laos people too live on stilt houses...we went into one of the houses to take a look at their living conditions...the house was pretty much like the white thai's...and they too have televison!!! haha...one interesting thing you notice is that they actually divide their bedrooms into different compartments...each compartment is for one generation...meaning the grandparents will take one, the parents another and the kids another...the most noticable characteristic of the laos people is their black teeth...to them, the darker their teeth, the more beautiful a women is...i doubt we will want to be like them haha...we gave sweets to the kids of that family...but u never know, within minutes, all the neighbour's kids also gathered in the house, waiting for sweets too haha...i guess they do learn community spirit quite young haha...
