On Thursday we left Monkey Island and caught the the cruise back to Halong bay then we got back on the bus for four hours and arrived in Hanoi. After that we had dinner, then we caught the over night train to Sa Pa. I woke up about five times on the train, my bed was also squeaky. The beds were comfortable, I was exited to catch the over night train.
On Friday we woke up on the over night train, got off and had an hour drive to Sa Pa. When we got off we went into are room, there where to single beds and one Queen bed (their were animals made up of a towel). After that we went walking for breakfast. On the way three ladies come to ask if we wanted to buy something we said no we were just looking for breakfast, then they should us a food place. The food was so good. Then we went back to the room and played iPad. Then we had lunch. After lunch then we went back to the room and relaxed. Then we had dinner.
On Saturday we went hiking with local people. We walked about sixteen kilometres through out the whole day. Five hours of hiking to another village from Sa Pa. When we were hiking the ladies made me a horse out of a little tree for me and a love heart out of a tree for Brie. After that we arrived at one of the ladies houses and had lunch. They had a pig a dog and a buffalo and a farm and they lived in a little hut with dirt floor. Lunch was the best bit of the day for me because the food was so good. After that we went walking to another village. Then we stopped at a cafe and had a drink, we also said good bye and thank you to them. Then they gave us a present, they gave me a little hand bag and Brie a purse. After we got back we had dinner than we had a foot massage.
On Sunday we didn’t do much we woke up had breakfast I had chocolate banana pancake it was so good!!!!! After that we walked around Sa Pa for half an hour then we came back to the hotel and grabbed are bags and walked down to the traveling place, and caught a taxi to the sleeping bus place. The bus went for six hours. While we were on the bus I looked out the window slept for two hours and played my iPad until it was out of charge (it was only 9% charged). When we arrived at Hanoi we took a taxi from the bus to are Hotel. Once we got to are hotel we went up to the top deck and played cards. After that we went to have dinner, we had spring rolls, vegetables, crispy chicken and squid. The squid was my favourite. I recon the bus is better then the train.
