Day 20 - to Halong Bay

Early start from our Hanoi hotel to hop on the bus to Halong/ Lan Ha Bay
We stop at a service station that along with a toilet and coffee, gives us an education on the process of farming pearls from Oysters
Speed boat for the 5 of us and our luggage to the Unicharm.
Couple of hours chugging firstly through Halong Bay and then in to Lan Ha Bay, watching the gorgeous scenery, exploring our home for the next 48 hours, and enjoying good seafood for lunch.
Once we reach Lan Ha, we transfer to the tender, and head to the floating activity centre and jump in canoes.
2 hours canoeing round Halong Bay and swimming from a beach. It's all beautiful but there is a lot of rubbish about.
Back to the boat for Happy Hour, making spring rolls, and then dinner.
Night sleeping on our lovely boat!Read more
