Chiang Khong

Chiang Khong is a border town of Laos, you get here from Chiang Mai, Thailand. Nothing interesting but it's a nice quiet place. The only reason people visit here is because they want to board the Slow Boat to Luang Prabang.

2) Millipede at thai border

The millipede have many legs. Its name is a compound word formed from the Latin roots milli (thousand) and ped (foot). But as you can see from this photo, it has much less than a thouands legs, I've counted only 32 legs.
