After an adventure in Hanoi, Jenny and I headed out to sea for a trip to Halong Bay! Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and one of the natural wonders that Vietnam is most proud of. There are hundreds of these giant, moss-covered limestone rocks jutting out of the ocean for as far as the eye can see. We were convinced that this is where James Cameron found his inspiration for the floating mountains in Avatar. Jenny and I took almost 100 pictures during our trip to Halong Bay - here are the highlights! Enjoy!

View of "Chopstick Rock" from the boat
This is next to the giant cave that we explored. This rock formation looks like a guy dangling his feet off the edge!
This rock formation is supposed to represent two chickens fighting...
It was very, very cold when we were there! It was very misty and drizzly while we were on the bay - but we still spent lots of time outside!
