Hello from Laos! We're in the middle of our trip to Southeast Asia, and I'm thrilled to be visiting Cambodia and Laos for the first time. We've been in Laos for the past few days and have had an amazing time, and it has greatly exceeded my expectations. I'll share more thoughts on Luang Prubang and surrounding areas in a separate post.
On the blog front, perhaps the biggest challenge has been that the internet speeds here are horrible. I'm not sure if that's just a function of our hotel or the overall infrastructure, but it sure does make it difficult to stay caught up on work, when I'm often waiting several minutes for a webpage to load.
On the miles and points front we've also seen quite a bit of news this week. We've continued to see some incredible credit card offers, some great business class fare sales, and unfortunately some negative changes to United's award redemption rules.
