Day 10 - Phong Nha-Ke Bang

Caving trip today - 2 caves in fact.
Early start after a pancake breakfast then pick up by mini-bus.
First cave is Paradise cave - the longest dry cave in Asia at 31km.
We climb up to the entrance, and then pass 1km inside. Very big, very impressive!
Then lunch of BBQ pork, chicken, and goat (I think) before cave #2.
The Dark Cave is across the river, so Jake and Dylan travel by zipwire, Dad by canoe.
We enter the Dark cave in trunks, lifejackets and helmets with lights.
No electric lighting in this cave (could you guess by the name), so soon only the light of head torches to see by.
We progress through a ravine with sand underfoot and the occasional rock to climb over.
Our destination is a small cavern, with a pool of mud for us to bathe in.
Back out at the river we canoe across the river and then play on a couple of smaller ziplines that end in the middle of the water.
Back home, we borrow bikes and cycle to the Funky Beach for a couple of drinks and snacks.
And then back to our homestay to eat a delicious Vietnamese feast with the other guests and Tu Tu.Læs mere
