Hanoi Trip 2: Sapa

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

Finally, we reached Sapa after 9 hours on train
This is how Sapa looks like...
very cold, a bit like our Cameron Highlands
This aunty chase us for a few streets
Begging us to buy her stuff....very scary
Luckily we run into our hotel
which she's cannot go in...hahaha
This is how the local ppl sell their stuff
Nice hats

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

These are sell in a shop
These with the red hat belongs to another minority race in Sapa
In their market, we saw crabbies
Legs of cow or goat

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

Me & Cedric in front of the market
We can only took their photo when they didnt realise
or else they will ask us to pay

On our way to climb the Sapa Hill

When we're climbing half way,
some local ppl invite us to his house and have drinks
they are so kind
The pigs laying lazily

Our Sapa guide, Alan
We going to the waterfall

Too bad, we cant go in and play the water
Next, we climb another hill to view the whole Sapa

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

The 4 gals are lazy to climb again

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

On my way up up up
I feel like a God, this place is not meant to be in earth

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

Ohh~ crawling out like a whore

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

Rocks everywhere
The whole Sapa town is under me

[Fabulous image removed by Author]

Very very nice view, and the gals miss it

That would be all in my Sapa Journey

    SK. the traditional clothes costs us around RM35-40 per piece. The gals are not interest in buying them, and they claim that it is heavy and smelly...

    but we're guys, so not a prob for us :) we usually buy clothes at places we visited for our own souvenir
