Vietnam: Practicing Nothing

2 May 2011

Halong Bay Tour – Day 3
Cat Ba Island

Learning the art of doing nothing.  A full day on our own and instead of figuring out the logistics of how to get to the National Park on Cat Ba Island and how to hike in the National Park on Cat Ba Island and how to do both those things without melting in the humid sun, we opt instead to practice how to do nothing.  We stumbled a bit, what with taking a walk along the shoreline trail to the next beach over, but after that we were back on track, lounging at the pool and keeping tabs on the endless breaking news over Osama Bin Laden.  A slow news day for us but a big one for the networks.
