Halong Bay, Vietnam

We drive 4 hours east of Hanoi to Halong Bay. Cruising on the jade green water among the towering rock formations is reminiscent of our cruise along the Li River near Guilin in China several years ago. We pass a floating village where the main occupation is fishing. We hear what sounds like loud buzz saws echoing among the rock mountains jutting from the water. It is the sound of cicada type insects in the high heat.
