Sa Pa, Vietnam: 16th November 09






Today we hiked 14km up and down the mountain, visiting 4 villages on the way. We were about 2,000 metres high but the mist was thick, so we couldn't see any of the amazing views. Our guide pointed out the best view in Sa Pa but all we could see was whiteness. Oh well, there's something intrinsically good about walking on a mountain in the clouds.












Our guide, a 22 year old local villager called Khu (promounced 'coo') was good fun. She kept laughing at us as we slipped on the steeper and muddier sections of the mountain. We both slipped over 3 times each and were caked in mud.





















In the evening we went to a local bar where Matt took over DJ duties and played loads of fab tunes!
