SAPA - 3 nights trekking with the Hill Tribes
I was glad to get out of noisy Ha Noi and I got on the night train to LAO CAI. The train left at 9 pm and arrived at 5pm there. I have to say it was a great train ride a bit bumpy but I got to sleep and woke up to some loud Vietnamese propaganda music. FUN...
After another 45 minutes on the bus we arrived in SAPA .. 1650m high and it was foggy. But wait 10minutes and the weather changes anyways. I was teamed up with some great folks from Lissabon and it was 5 of us all togehter. We got a great guide MEE ...she was tiny and about 10kg.
The hill tribe ladies are tooo funny ....Buy from ME my friend ..where you from ..how many kids..buy from me ...hihih and they were following us around for the next 2 days. But they were not mad if you did not buy anything from them. And we had fun having them around.
The next day was a bit more challenging trek, but the landscape was just GREAT. Great views, lovely villages... great weather ...
That evening we went back on the train and arrived back in Ha Noi at 5 am ..and for the first time it was quiet.
SAPA was great ...loved it!
