Just finished our 2 nights and 3 day tour of Ha Long Bay. It was great. The limestone rocks are amazing. There is over 1000 of them in a big area. On the first day we cruised on our boat through the rocks to an amazing cave, which had a great view of part of the bay. We went Kayaking in some Lagoons to watch some monkeys that live on one of the rocks.

On the first night we slept on the boat in a nice room. The food throughout our time on the boat was really good too. In the morning we went up a big hill on one of the rocks to a Pagoda which gave a great view of the bay. We then made our way towards one of the big Islands called Cat Ba, where we went bicycling and hiking.

Sadly I only took my flip flops with me on the hike which meant I was slipping everywhere and did end up falling over and getting quite muddy, I was ok though. In the afternoon we went Kayaking again and then staying in a cracking hotel on the Island which was quite developed but still quiet, clean and had great food.

The last day we spent travelling back to Hanoi. We have one final day in Hanoi before we go back to Ho Chi Minh City on Friday. I’m working on Saturday but my friends James and Sarah are continuing to go down the country before flying back to England on 14th April.
This was a great trip and the best thing I’ve seen in Vietnam!
