Landslide in Luang Prabang
May 03, 2003

The lower part of the Krangsi Falls outside of Luang Prabang, Laos. The big pile of rocks in the middle of the picture are compliments of a recent land slide. Sone says that because of the landslide, the falls aren't as big and beautful as they used to be. He said that this is a sacred waterfall, and the the landslide happened because the sprits were upset because foreigners had come to the waterfall and had sex here. Granted, it is quite a romantic place (if you remove the crowds), but I would hate to think that I destroyed the falls because I was overcome with... emotion.
