On route - Trang An

Late morning wake up as we only arrived at the hostel quit late.
Checked out, went for a stroll and found viet coffee shop for wifi so we can search our next step.

Overhearing locals about their route, we approached and asked if they could drop up off (for a fee obviously) in Trang An on their way to Nihn Bihn.

On route, the driver makes for light conversation so we asked for the radio to be turned on. To our mistake, Vietnamese music for couple hours can be excruciating pain.

Dropped off at our new hostel. We proceed to check in our bagg, rent some bicycles and head off exploring.

Biking around, we find interesting spots for pics, bbq goat, and sneaky back roads.

Taking a back road, we find ourselves entering a very cute "villages".
Actually a great place for pics, lunch and view points for sunset.

Up the 100s stairs in humid sweaty temperature. We discover many more tourists and backpackers chasing the sunset.
Once ontop, we try to climb higher and further from the crowd.

Having some sweaty pics taken is no fun.
Deciding to go down and over to the next peak we started running to make up time before sun breaks the horizon.

Once on the pegoda peak. We settle for some rest and pics but notice we are blocked off from sunset by the mountain we just came from. So non the less, head down and back over before darkness.

On the peak in time, we are joined by a team of photographers and a wedding couple. Don't know how she did it but damn, some good shots can be taken.Read more
