Sapa - Trekking Day 2
We were all a bit worse for wear the next morning and woke to a lot of village girls ready to sell us thier stuff. We were all just sitting down trying to drink tea and coffie to get to grips with teh hangovers and we are completly surrounded by the hard sell.
The problem with this day is that were were back on the main tourist trail and the hassle that comes with it. Our guide was a bit rough him self this morning so we took it ver easy and walked slowly. We were badgered all the way by the sellers which was a pain in the ass when ever you stopped. After the prevoius day isolation it was a bit of a bummer!
We stopped on top a big water fall and the hassle became to much so we kept going onto teh end of the treck at a restraunt by a road, we had the vietnamese staple of noodle soup and veg and fruit and made our way up to teh waiting mini van tio take us back to town. After day one today did not really compare but we were all so tired and hungover we were not botherd at all and teh scenery was still stunning when you stopped to look at it.
On teh way back to Sapa we got stuck in front of a big construction truck for ages and we all ended up getting out of the van and walking the rest of the way. Good call as teh mini van had to back up miles before the truck could get through. Vietnamese roads and drivers are just plain mental.
Quite night that night and we got our balcony room back. We were all happily tired and after dinner bombed out.
