Ha Long Bay

(Note: We left Da Nang yesterday and flew to Hanoi and then drove to Tuam Chau which is where you catch boats to Ha Long Bay.)

Today we went on a boat. It was call Huy Loc. It was big and there was an upstairs where you could see the view. We also saw rocks shaped like a dog, cat and a parrot.

We stopped and went in a large cave full of stalactites and stalagmites. They were amazing.

Then we went to a lagoon and daddy and I went kayaking. I wore a life jacket and got an oar. We travelled under a cave and I learned how to steer, but my arms ached. I enjoyed it.

Then we went to Ti Top Island. I swam in the sea. I swam to the buoy which was the furthest people were allowed to swim. The water was cold but I got used to it.

Then we got the boat back to the marina.
