HALONG BAY - Northern Vietnam

Halong Bay is really one of the 7 wanders of the world! it's incredible!!!!

After arriving in Hanoi we went off to Halong Bay for a 3 day cruise on a traditional "junk" boat. There is something quite mystical about seeing these huge limestone formations coming out of the turquoise coloured water.

We spent the first day cruising, having delicious gourmet food on the boat and swimming in the bay. The next day was a lot of fun as we went canoeing around the rock formations before spending the night in a resort on Cat Ba island. The next day we treked up to the highest peak on the island to have fantastic views on to the mountain peaks and Halong Bay, it was hard but worth it!

Halong Bay is a must see while visiting Vietnam and once we got back to Hanoi we got the night train up to Sapa in the mountains for another must do.

We're having a lot of fun in Vietnam, there is loads to do!!!!!!!!!!
