Day 19: One short day in Ha Long Bay

The hostel arranged trip out to Ha Long Bay, which is about 3 hours away from Hanoi. I chose the spend-one-night-on-the-boat option. There were 9 of us in the group, myself + 4 Germans, 2 Kiwis & 2 Brits. We got out on the water by noon and had some lunch, took a trip to a cave (see: bottom of this entry). The boat parked outside the cave and we kayaked over to the beach. It was beautiful, the water was the warmest I've been in outside of times people pee in the pool.

It looks a lot like Guilin, except bigger. I'm putting in a photo with a Vietnamese flag for emphasis.












In case you're sick of beautiful scenery, here's a rock that looks like a penis:

Still dwelling on your massage, or just trying to make someone jealous? :) PS Didn't know what the Vietnamese flag looked like.
