I came across this photo shoot at Phra Sumen Fort the other day.

I think they must have been professional models doing a shoot for some magazine.

Traffic jams on streets surrounding my hotel this afternoon. Something important was taking place. After some investigation I found out the Thai Princess was visiting the National Library of Laos (only 400 yards or so from my hotel)
