The following day I set off on the Halong Bay trip with a group from the Backpackers. Our luck is in weather wise, its a clear blue sky!! Saying that there is still a little haze but the view of the islands is impressive. Supposedly there are over 3000 islands, 1969 of which are classified as an UNESCO world heritage site...why the other 1000 or so are not I don't know. Travelling out to the islands you meet boat after boat returning from the day trips to the islands...its pretty crowded to say the least. Part of the trip is to stay over night on the boat and then do some kayaking around the islands. Its a fantastic tour and the over night stay on the boat is a great laugh.
