Well today is the day I see if I can manage the first hike, our tour guide, Mr binh Nguyen (known as win win) has told us it's 3 hours up the mountain then we visit a farm where the farmer is going toOkumaya devam et
Well 18,000 steps between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm. It's not the distance it's the bloody steepness of the mountains and then walking through the rice fields 🫠
Well pleased with today so now it's bar time, several people in the group are doing the spa and massage thing until tea tonight so it's relax time now
Pics from lunch in the farmhouse, including theOkumaya devam et
Well the second hike, I think we go through a village market before heading to a village called "Red Dao" where we get lunch, after that who knows
12000 steps and it's 11:00 and a beer stop.
After beer stop we headed to a farmhouse for dinner the headed higher up through the paddy fields before coming back down a different trail through bamboo woods and streams and then back to theOkumaya devam et
Just some pics of the food , which up to now has been delicious
Well all packed and ready for road trip back to Hanoi for one night
Well we grounded the bus a few times on the rough roads, had to get out a few times 🤣
Great scenery coming down, stopped for aOkumaya devam et
Today we set off for an overnight cruise on ha long bay, apparently it's about a 2 1/2 hour drive from hanoi , again I've no idea what to expect.
Well we stopped for a break at a right tourist trap.Okumaya devam et
Well a lovely boat, with a bar and sun deck plus yet again good food, we parked up at an island so we could climb to the top for a view.
400 steps up , 91.6 metres up, 15 mins up and 15 mins down thenOkumaya devam et
