After a few good days here at the Chez Beo Homestay it was time once again to move. Wanted to spend a few days on Cát Bà Island and a few days in Hanoi at the end of the trip. Today the sun was out so I took a few pictures of Chez Beo Homestay…
Another gray morning at the Chez Beo Homestay. But it looked like it will stay dray today. Decided to go for a ride to the Cuc Phuong National Park to look for the 1000 year old tree. I gave the girl from Google Maps all the freedom and she did choose a really nice road…
