Halong Bay - Day 1

Got picked up at 8 by my guide and a driver - 3 hours to Halong Bay. We stopped off at a workshop where disabled Vietnamese work creating stunning embroideries and paintings. Really really detailed, some of the embroideries looked like pictures at a distance they were so detailed. Quick cup of coffee and then onwards to Halong Bay.

Now I know I was going overnight on this trip, and I knew I'd paid a bit but I only found out as we got there that i was going on one of the nicest ships - The Halong Jasmine. Now from the outside it looks very nice but inside - well this is my room ->




And here's some pictures from Halong Bay
