Halong Bay and Cat Ba Island, Vietnam



The "Junk" boat cruise to the island was fabulous (pictured above) as we passed caves and floating villages. Inside the caves were stalagtites and stalagmites (pictured below) that have been there for over 1,000 years.

Hiking in Cat Ba Island National Park was fantastic and we sweated more than we ever have in our entire lives! The 3,000 islands were surrounding us. After the strenuous hike, we got magnificent massages on the beach for $4. Incredible!
