Choosing a tour to Halong Bay
probably justifies a blog on its own but to cut to the chase we were
recommended a two night trip with Alova Gold Cruise on Twitter and
decided to go with it.
After exploring Hanoi and unsuccessfully
attempting to see Ho Chi Minh’s embalmed body (it was closed) we decided
to retire early in preparation for the Bay. A good idea at the time and
a good idea in hindsight.
