Jackpot ?

We stopped for some tea, and these were lying about the place.... Then later on we came across these . . .

Firewater

Lizards, Scorpions and Cobras. With my fear of snakes, there's no way I'm touching this gear. It's found all over Vietnam.

A few words

Sapa was amazing. I wasn’t too fussed about going, but so far the greatest place I have been in Vietnam. It was a 10 hr train ride up, which started out hot and on very hard seats, but it seems we were able to buy our way into a sleeper, which had a fan until Em busted it with her head. Got ripped off going from Lao Cai to Sapa, when the train stopped, but only about $1.50s worth each. Found a hotel really easily and settled and headed out for the night and ate at the markets and bought some souvineers and had a good rest. We were befriended by the girls, as I’ve mentioned previously, hired bikes for two days to get around out of Sapa. Went riding through villages which were amazing, where they still live off the land. The views were something else, goats, chickens, pigs and duscks roaming about. Kids riding water buffalo, Emma coming off her bike (She was OK luckily), hemp fields and water falls. Amazing, though I’m not sure the pictures do the place justice.

More pics ... Just gotta get them up.

Cat Cat Falls

Just dig the animated peanuts, but green? Em and I went down to Cat Cat Falls, quite a hike down, but we rode. Was beautiful but very hot, sos having a dip in the rock pools was fantastic and rather refreshing as the water was ver cold.

The Radio Tower ... Sapa, still ....

So yo, the girls took me and Em for a climb up the hill (kind of more of a mountain) to where there's a radio tower overloking the town. Had my photo done, so the girls all wanted one too!
