Halong Bay
is a bit like Phangnga Bay at Phuket only bigger. Strange limestone stuff. The boat which we explore in is luxurious
with en suite facilities. The food
great. Chef shows us how to make a
decorative net out of a carrot. But it is busy.
We are one of 650 tour boats licensed in the bay.
Hanoi as a
city is unreal. In the old town where we
stay much of it is pedestrianised from 5pm.
Bars and restaurants teeming with people, bright lights and live music. And off the pedestrian streets just 6 million
motorcycles.
