First Stop: Cat ba

Four days ago we drove from Hanoi to Haiphong, from there we took a boat to Cat Ba. We found a really cheap Hotel near the ocean. On the first day, we went to the beach for swimming, playing volleyball, and sunbathing. For dinner, we ate fish and it was really tasty. On the third day, we visited the National Park of the island and hiked up the mountain. We had a beautiful view from the top. On our last day in Cat Ba, we took a tour to Ha Long Bay. We took a boat to Ha Long Bay and went kayaking around the rocks. Afterwards, we had a nice lunch and went to Monkey Island, where we saw some monkeys and climbed up the mountain. Cat Ba was really beautiful and it was the first time we were by the sea.
