Making the Most of Our Final Days in Vietnam

As our trip to Hanoi, Vietnam came to a close, we took several tours that took us to the countryside outside of Hanoi. We even did an overnight tour of Halong Bay with its amazing scenery. Each of the tours was special in its own way and we’ll detail them in full once we return home. We look forward to describing each of the tours once we return home, but here a few photographs to provide a slight glimpse into the beauty that this country has to offer.

Many Temples in Vientiane, Laos

On our first full day in Vientiane, Laos, we spent a majority of the day visiting temples, of which there are many. It is amazing how beautiful each of them were and unique and similar at the same time. With so many details to see, you could spend hours admiring the architecture and the art of the temples. Obviously, we saw a lot more than just the temples, but that was certainly a large part of our first day in Vientiane.

Our First Afternoon in Vientiane, Laos

We have had limited opportunities to share any of our experiences due to the long days and limited access to our computer. We will provide details when we return home, but for now we at least wanted to share a few photographs from some of the places that we’ve seen. After a couple of days in Hanoi, Vietnam, we flew to Vientiane, Laos where we spent an afternoon at Buddha Park, which was amazing. Needless to say, the pictures don’t truly do it justice, but here is a brief glimpse into this wonderful site.
