Trip to Halong Bay

We took an overnight trip to Halong Bay. We boarded the boat yesterday at noon & left today at noon. It was a 4 hour drive from Hanoi.

Yesterday the weather was perfect but today it was overcast & a little rainy. Our room/cabin was small but nice. The only bad part was no crib so Quinn slept between Adam & I. Therefore, none of us got much sleep.

After we boarded we went through the bay to a cave. We hiked through the cave...a lot of stairs & not very easy to do w/ a baby carrier on but it was still nice.

The food on the boat was unbelievable. We had lunch & dinner yesterday and breakfast & lunch today. Lunches & dinner were 6 course meals. We had a lot of fresh seafood which was very good.

Adam & others swimming off the side of the boat (Adam is on the far right). The lady in the small boat is selling things. They would row right up to the side of our boat to try to sell food, drinks, etc.
