HALONG BAY

/ OCTOBER 24–27, 2017 /

One of the main attractions in Vietnam is Halong Bay. We decided to splurge on a two-night cruise, and we were glad we did.

Our luxurious ride to Halong

I may have fallen asleep

On the way, we were taken to a craft workshop/massive tourist center, where we were encouraged to buy art and jewelry and snacks.

The embroidery was pretty cool

Brandon tried to talk me into getting this dress.

We were also taken to a water puppet show, where we had lunch.
