Maybe it's because 2014 is coming to a close, but I feel like there is no better time than to share pictures from my travels this year (well...six months ago would have been best). Anyway, here's a few pictures from my trip to Ha Long Bay, northern Vietnam, in April. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and where they filmed the James Bong flicks Tomorrow Never Dies and The Man with the Golden Gun. Enjoy!
We started our adventure in Ha Long Bay off with
a four-hour bus ride from Hanoi. On the way back, I'm happy to say
I spent the entire time turned around chatting with fellow travelers from
Norway and the UK. My sore neck was absolutely worth it.
Our fearless captain.
None of my blog entries are complete without
a picture of a flag.
We were shown how the locals fish for oysters,
and eventually turn them into jewelry!
I spent one night on the first house - bungalow - on the left.
I ran out of water for the evening before I finished my shower. Woops.
When I think about the places I visit, the people I met
always come to mind first. Enjoying lunch with fellow travelers
from France and the United States.
Cat Ba Island
Not the greatest electrical work I've seen,
but I guess it gets the job done.
I wouldn't spend the night here.
Propaganda fascinates me.
Not something you see every day on the side of a busy street.
I don't know why kindergarten-sized plastic chairs are
so ubiquitous, but I saw these everywhere in Hanoi and Ha Long Bay.
As always, thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoyed the pictures!
