Can You Spell M-A-G-N-I-F-C-E-N-T???

Seriously. Just now back from 2 glorious days sailing amid THE most incredible setting on the Planet:  The one, the only, the magnificent Ha Long Bay.  Seriously.  It's more magical than I could ever imagine.  A dream setting.

Just a few moments here in the boat terminal in Ha Long City, waiting for the bus back to Hanoi.  Tonight I'm bound for a train to Sapa.

Many, many, MANY pics - later.

I actually managed to find a geocache - indeed, was (incredibly) FTF (First To Find) called "Ti Top" (geochums, look it up...)

More hopefully later today from Hanoi, while I wait for the night train to Sapa.

Later this evening - from Hanoi - let's try adding some PICS!
Ha Long Bay
Never too old for a little kayaking!

Hanoi Lake

Last night's sunset from TiTop Island (where I found the geocache!

Sorry - that's it for tonight - gotta catch that train to Sapa! (btw, I'll be riding on the back of a scooter through the streets of Hanoi to get to the train station - compliments of my hotel manager)

  1. Have you learned to say "First To Find" in Vietnamese yet? :)

  2. @Paul - well "1" is "moat", but dunno about "find". So leastwise I can say "Moat to Find"!

There's nothing I like better than hearing (well o.k. seeing stuff) from my readers. Thanks for taking the time to read my blather and share your thoughts. ~ Dyanne
