Evening!! We have just arrived back from 2 days and 1 night stay in Halong Bay, Which was amazing!! The coach picked us up from our hotel in Hanoi and it was a 4 hour journey to the Bay, where we emabarked upon a lovely boat/ship with about 12 other people. We were really suprised how nice the ship was and our room was lovely! We had 5 meals all together, all weird and wonderful things which i eventually tried and actually quite liked!! We are getting very much used to spring rolls, noodle soup and fried sweetcorn!!

The ship took us all around the bay, which is stunning! ( although it is very cold!!!, running out of warm clothes already!) We took alook in the caves and went kayaking around the bay which was really good!! We met an english couple and some australian girls on the boat so the night was spent drinking, eating and playing cards!! ( we are trying to get some photos up, but the wiifi is playing up, so bare with us!). We are off to explore the night market with our new friends! and then have another early moring tomorrow to catch our flight to Hoian where we will hopefully find sunshine!! The Australian girls got 4 coats made each in Hoian, so i think Gizz is also hoping i dont find the shops!! Will update in a couple of days. Lots of love xxx
