Vietnam Days 20 & 21: Phong Nha Be Kang

Day 20 was a travel day for us. We went from Ninh Binh to Phong Nha Ke Bang. We still weren't feeling awesome so the 5.5 hour journey was a bit painful but we got there. We were greeted by a really lovely host, Linh, and got ourselves settled. Erin took advantage of his wife's spa across the street and the 20% discount he was offering on services. She enjoyed an hour long, full-body massage including hot stones and a warming eye mask for only $14 CAD! It helped to recover her body and spirit after the physically and emotionally draining days before. 

Day 21 was a recovery day. Erin and Adventure Girl spent some time in the pool. We joined up with the whole team for a beautiful sunset dinner on the Con River. 


 
One of the best meals of the trip!

Erin thoroughly enjoyed her Phong Nha speciality... you roll your own fresh spring rolls right at the table, complete with rice noodles, veggies, herbs, and this incredible dill-covered fish straight from the griddle! 

Too many sunset pictures? Never!
