a typical day in Lao

You know you are having a typical day in Laos when you...

... drive a scooter one-handed everywhere you go because the other hand is holding an umbrella.
... eat fur moo noodle soup for breakfast.
... see women riding scooters side-saddle.
... no longer think eating fermented fish sauce is weird.
... have students that are novice monks in orange robes.
... eat sticky rice at every meal and it doesn't bother you.
... get a craving to eat spicy chillies instead of running away in fear.
... no longer get annoyed at the Lao pace of doing things.

(I will keep adding to this list)
