Ninh Binh
Nearly didn't make it here due to an enormous argument on our bus... Instead of being dropped in town we were dropped a few miles out at a dodgy hotel where there was a bit of money changing hands between our driver and the hotel owner... Tried to put up a fight for around 40 minutes, and eventually managed to get a free night and food. In fact it turned out to be the best place we've stayed so far!!
Anyway, after that we didn't waste our time and spent a lovely day on the river in between amazing mountains and rice paddies. Just what we imagined Vietnam would be like. Also got a scooter and saw some more of the area. Despite some very old roads, there is clearly a lot of development going on and there are some proper roads and some big hotels going up. I reckon in a few years time the place will look totally different.
Next, on to Hoi An to get some clothes made!
