Hue to Phong Nha

Yesterday, we woke up hoping the rain had stopped so we could do some sightseeing in Hue - we weren't so lucky, and it continued to rain all day. Instead of getting soaked, we decided to go to the movies and for the first time ever, we had the entire movie theater to ourselves! We watched Jason Statham's new movie, The Beekeeper, which was a good way to spend our afternoon. After our movie, we took a sleeper bus from Hue to Phong Nha. It was our first experience with a sleeper bus in Vietnam, and while it wasn't the best (quite uncomfortable seats, old bus), it wasn't the worst bus we'd been on this trip. The bus was delayed by half an hour, which combined with a 40min police stop, meant that we arrived in Phong Nha at 10pm, instead of 9pm. Our host was waiting for us at the bus stop and drove us to the guesthouse, where we had pork pho, tea and a warm room waiting for us.

Today, we slept in after getting into Phong Nha quite late. We had a slow day of doing some trip admin and rode some bikes along the river.Weiterlesen
