Hi everyone, this is a bit overdue but better late than never! (by louise) This blog is about our 3 day trip to Halong bay (8th wonder of the world). So we were picked up by a mini bus early morning and the trip didn't get off to as great start! As we pulled up to the dock to board the boat we realised we didn't have our passports which were at our hotel and we were told they were apparently needed for the overnight stay on the junk (boat) at halong bay.

Im not sure if weve mentioned this before but everybody uses their horn over here. The vietnamese use their horns as much as we use our indicators so you can imagine the noise constantly!

Hi everyone, we are recieving all the comments and messages that people are leaving and they are great to see so thank you, obviously we cant reply to everyone individually cause it would take forever. We have spent the last 3 nights in Nha Trang on the coast of Vietnam. We have loved it. We booked our accomodation in advance because we were arriving late from HCMC on a bus.
