Cat Ba Island

So yesterday we decided to motorbike around the island that we've been staying on for the past few days. We were initially planning on heading to, what we heard was, a nice beach very close to our hotel called Cat Co 2. Unfortunately we woke up and it was really overcast and windy so we ruled that out as a plan, so motorbiking it was.

We were heading to the Cat Ba National Park, but since we had no idea where we were going, we ended up taking a really circuitous route that was really fun to speed down on our bikes. I think I got mine up to around 75km/hr at one point, which I'm sure felt faster than it was in reality.

Along the way we found a pretty beach and stopped to take some photos:













Here are a few more from the day:











This morning we woke up to SUNSHINE. This is what this paradise SHOULD look like everyday (from our hotel window):





In a couple hours we are headed to Hanoi, hangin with some folks we met here, then heading back to HCMC to meet up with my parents, Derek and Duyen for the engagement party on Sunday...then we're off to Angkor Wat/Siem Reap!
