Halong Bay 03

Hang on, it’s June? Already!! I kinda can’t move any faster. Anyone feeling the same? Well, back to this. Last post on Halong Bay. Picking up from where I left off in part 02, we explored two lagoons after lunch. I love the word ‘Lagoon’, I can say it all day. ‘Sorbet’ too. So of cos I was thrilled to go kayaking in a lagoon, or two.

As we were paddling back to our day boat, it was nice to see one boat transformed into a junk! With the sail up and everything.

The following morning, there was another one with the sail up! We were up early to go see the Sung Sot Cave or Cave of Surprises.

Passed a fishing village. There’s even a bank in there, like a money bank! So, the cave. The photo below, I took after we completed the trail. I took some photos with my iPhone inside the cave too. I wished they didn’t put multi-coloured lights cos I kept thinking of ice kachang and I wanted my first cave experience to be cool like Batman and not dessert.

It is HUGE inside, I don’t know if the photos show that. Hope this helps – I placed two tiny yellow dots above two people on the path for walking in the photo below.

Some fisherwomen hawking their catch of the day at the pier. After this, it was back to mainland and back to Hanoi. Halong Bay is one of the most beautiful places I’ve seen and it sparked a want to go see more beautiful parts of the world.
