Halong Bay...Wow!!


So,we boarded our Junk boat in Halong bay, with this little chap leaping aboard like a monkey to try and sell us fruit despite us going at a fair pace...
First stop was some pretty cool caves, ..lots of lit up stalactities and such, but was very hot and sweaty, so jsut walked through. not as good as the caves of draque, or even wookey hole inmy opinion, but still cool...

The rest was a tour round the bay. we went kayaking, for a bit of a workout before a superb seafood lunch... then swimming on a lovely beach where we played frisbee, and all got stung by little jelly fish (but it was only a very minor irritation) before more cruising.




It's hard to show in pictures the majesty of this place... it just gs on and on... took some terrible video too....




just gorgeous!

A night out in wierd "sexy" halong town (lots of sex trade) before bed and a bus journey back to hanoi the next day.
