Ha Long Bay boat trip

We've had a lovely couple of days enjoying the limestone formations of this bay in Vietnam. Weather could have been better but it didn't rain. We convinced ourselves the grey, slight mistiness was atmospheric! We spent the night on the boat with eight others, and were embarrassingly beaten at scrabble by the Vietnamese tour leader! Yesterday we took kayaks for an hour and paddled around a floating fishing village, getting up close to the rocks. I spotted a crab with purple pincers, some oyster shells and bits of coral on them. Feeling energetic later we climbed up 400 + steps to get a misty view.

 

Our "junk" No sails up unfortunately, too windy.
