Pu Luong

We are picked up early for our trip down to Pu Luong this morning. After a couple of stops to get a few more passengers we head off.

It’s about a two and a half hour trip going west from Ninh Binh through lots of little towns and villages. It was quite an interesting trip, our driver is good and he’s not a horn blower. Some of them are on the horn all the time.

Wish I could take photos of all the things people manage to put on the back of motorbikes or pushbikes here, from bags and bags of coconuts, 3 air conditioners stacked up, a live pig, stacks of bamboo. Incredible.

Arrived at Gateway Inn about 11 where they made us a coffee while we waited for the room to be ready. It is in a gorgeous location overlooking the valley and all the villages down there. All our meals are included here and wow they have been sensational so far. So simple really but delicious.

Our room looks out over the same valley with a nice little verandah.Baca selengkapnya
