When I am in Laos, I have a problem sleeping and always get up between 4:20 – 5:00 AM. By 5:20 AM I am walking around the town and taking pictures along the way before the sun comes up and after breakfast.

I always take my time to check out the beautiful flowers along the walking path. On this particular morning, I was walking by Villa Santi Hotel, on Royal Sakkarine Road at Ban Wat Sene and couldn’t help to stop and admire the beautiful hibiscus next to the sidewalk.
