Title: Vietnam
Post by: meehalych on November 24, 2014, 14:41:37: Here are some photos from my trip to Vietnam.
I arrived on 2 November in a morning, once again as it was a year ago it took me an hour before I grabbed my bag from a baggage belt. Next day we set off for Ha Long bay for two days-one night tour:

Here I am in a train that took us to Lao Kai from where we went to Sa Pa village
I didn't like the way the berths were fixed - ours are more reliable, the table wasn't fondable, so were the upper berths

A Japanese bridge in Hoi An: to cross it one has to pay a fee - waste of money in my opinion

Hoi An

Ba Na hills - a must-see place
(http://i1133.photobucket.com/albums/m590/meehalych/CIMG4691_zpsdbc81658.jpg)
(http://i1133.photobucket.com/albums/m590/meehalych/CIMG4699_zpsb48a1cd4.jpg)

If you ever happen to visit Ba Na hills, do remember not to waste your money and time for the Wine cellars - there is nothing interesting inside and a free wine is awful
