Sapa day 1
16 mei, Vietnam ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Had a very chill rest day today. Got into Sapa around 2am this morning. Even though I had barely done any exercise the last four days, I was still exhausted! Especially mentally after all the socialising aha, so a day of nothing was much needed.
I stayed in bed as long as I could until my stomach started grumbling and I ventured into town to the most adorable little vegan cafe. It had a bookshelf and the whole place was decorated like a fancy office, with little lamps at the table and post-it notes covering the walls. I had some very delicious food and was thinking about heading off before I heard a little bell. Then spotted a tiny kitten running around the corner of the cafe. I lured it over using the string from my hoodie, and played with her for a bit before she clambered onto my lap and promptly fell asleep. She was soooo cute, I couldn't move my arm. I happily sat there for over 2 hours, the kitten would wake up every 30 minutes or so, play with my hoodie for a bit, hop up onto the table and drink some of my tea! Then get comfortable on my lap and have another snooze. Was the best afternoon.
I reluctantly then left the kittens to play in peace, and wandered round the centre of Sapa for a bit. It was so foggy there wasn't actually a lot to see, so I found a cafe to people-watch and get an egg mayo sandwich (deeeelish).
It started to get dark, so I went to find yet another cafe to grab some coffee. I had seen on the Google reviews of this place that the owner had rescues cat and dogs. I was not disappointed when I go there. There was a huge fluffy sorta Alsatian passed out on the ground, a little french bulldog and a mutt dog sauntering around the place. I had a very delicious egg coffee, before the french bulldog decided my lap looked like a good nap spot and she plonked herself down. I don't think I've ever heard a dog snore so loud! But she was a good lap warmer.
I grabbed some food in the evening (terrible garlic bread & pasta), the met some of the people from Ha Giang for a few drinks. I learnt how to play the card version of monopoly! And practiced my very rusty pool skills. We've arranged to do a hike tomorrow morning, so have an early start!Meer informatie
