Big Brother Mouse
Pop into Big Brother Mouse and pick up some books to distribute to local children. Books cost 15,000 kip each and the idea behind the programme is to encourage visitors to hand out something more beneficial than candy, while promoting literacy. Run by a retired American publisher, the staff is made up of Laotian college and high-school students, all of whom contribute to the content, illustrations, and admin of the office. You can also purchase books at the night market or make a donation to support the production of new material, and the office gladly accepts volunteers when the need arises.

Done Khong Guest House & Restaurant
In an appealing position by the river, this place serves tasty Lao dishes such as làap, the mysterious 'soup with chicken gallingly root' (we thought it was galangal on tasting), and plenty of rice dishes.
