A photolog, 'cause pictures speak better and i'm just lazy
On the way to Halong Bay
The view from our hotel room
Slacking the moment we arrive
Stroll to the seaside
Jump shot!
I've always had this fascination with boats
With the sibs - I have an inability to coordinate a smile and a jump
We actually have no idea what the sign says but we happily posed with it anyway
The Vietnam flag and colorful buntings
♥ this shot
Fantastic sunset
Cheap beer
Seafood for dinner
The view we woke up to
But after breakfast...
It started pouring and we were told to wait before we were allowed out to sea
The downpour quickly became a drizzle and the sky cleared
Rowing boat going under the bridge
Small rowing boat amongst bigger boats
The guide says there are about 500 of these tourist boats, owned by different companies
On board our private boat (^-^)V
Picturesque
The crew passing the ingredients for our lunch from one boat to the other 'cause the boat we were on couldn't get the license to go out to sea for the day
Upper deck
Mummy dearest
Sissy
Daddy
Lounging on the deck
You gotta be unglam to get nice shots
According to height...
Limestone cave
Fantastical formations
Our guide pointing out some obvious figurines formed by the limestones
Jellyfish
Floating platforms where boats can dock to buy fresh seafood or even ask to have a meal whipped up
Karsts
Lunch on board!
Fighting cocks - symbol of Halong bay
And the sky darkened right after we got to shore...
Hoan Kiem lake, Hanoi - the name means literally, 'return sword'
Bonsai - expensive in Vietnam so people rent them for festive holidays instead of buying them
Old men playing chess outside the temple
Water puppet show
And the next day we were too lazy to go out so we slept in and after breakfast we made our way to the airport.
