We started our day with Tai Chi on the sun deck before getting ready to sail back to the harbour.

Before we left we we visited the Surprise Caves. There were 3 separate caverns The Surprise Cave the Amazing Cave and the Shocking Cave. Each had impressive features and although they may well have been spectacular the sheer number of visitors basically unrestrictedly touching, photographing and walking over has led to them being fairly ordinary and sadly grubby.

Eking out the last of our Halong experience we lay on the sun deck watching the scenery go by as we drifted back to the pier where we caught a bus, stopping at the same type of tourist trap, back to The Boss in Hanoi.

Wayne picked up some pizza, pasta and shopping mart beer whilst out getting himself some street food and we ate in our room that night.
