Halong Bay, Vietnam


Claire and I spent 2 days and 1 night out on Halong Bay. It was a beautiful and relaxing trip. They say that there are more than 1000 islands out in the bay and 900+ actually have names. The Vietnamese believe that the islands were created by an angry dragon that swooshed his tail wildly at the bottom of the sea creating the jagged islands. Some believe that the dragon can still be spotted swimming around the islands. We looked for him but didn't have the luck of seeing the dragon!
