French's Crappy CatBa

11/29/2002

hi guy... so the motorbike is back, your most favourite devoted 'acolyte'!!

we just arrive in hue this morning, after so many kilometers from haiphong, and hoffing a nice sunrise on the city, buttttttt... nothing, no rays! rain again... and again, all day! bollocks!! ( can u say that?) anyway, will explore the city soon.

we were on cat ba island.. nothing extraordinary... only for tourits, we were supposed to see so many animals, nice villages, and make an 'hard trek': listenning: we bought a ticket including, a 12km trek(in fact 8km go and back to the boat and 2 km go and back to climb the highest mountain on the island, that s true that on the top, the view is amazing, u can see the mountain and the see everywhere), then, you will have the lunch.. and that s it!! we paid 7 dollards. very desapointed. that s true that if you buy a package from hanoi, for example, 3 days and 2 nights including dinner, it s cheaper than what we made on ourselves.

maybe can you put it on your web site cause we found it stupid to see what they made with this cut island, at least at the beginning, just a big trip on a boat will be enought to visit halong bay. so we don t want that other people will have a bad surprise...
