snake whiskey bottles
if you look closely beyond the reflection for the glass, you will see the snakes, centipedes and the worm soaked in the local laotian brew. Supposedly it helps you keep warm during the cold season. I declined the offer of the shopkeeper but he cheerily allowed me to photograph his bottles. Kao said it has medicinal values but even he also declines to try the brew.....Luang Prabang, Laos PDR, January 2006 © daddywasabi, all rights reserved.
