This is the view outside of the room we were staying in. It was a HUGE room with a King sized bed , a twin sized bed, a fire place and enough room for two people to do some yoga!
And the people loved to follow us around. Popular sayings were, "Where you from?" "You buy from me?" And my response besides trying to ignore them was, "Khong muon mua- Cam on"! Transalated: I don't want to buy (anything). This was then responded to with a bunch of giggles and then questions: "Chi co ly chom, khong?" "Chi co dia dinh, khong?" "Chi boa nhieu tuoi?" So the most important question is: "Do you have a husband?" "Do you have a family?" and then "How old are you?" This is important to identify how to address me!
These are the beautiful Silver Springs Waterfalls. They are described as a white scarf or ribbon wrapping around the mountains. There was water everywhere since it was also raining. We were walking down some of the stairs and there was a small waterfall on the stairs!
And I have no idea if anyone lives here or not but holy moly, what a great 360 view
A monestary that was burned down in the past 50 years. "Em khong nho" I don't remember why it was burned down
And here are some more locals following us around trying to sell us their stuff. We met 2 ethinc minorities. These ladies were clothing dyed with indego dye and on their arms you can see that they are a bit blue as it is hard to "set" the dye. They also wrap their hair around their head and fasten it with a comb!
The beautiful view
These are the red had ladies. They are said to know more English than Vietnamese but I don't think that is the truth. They knew very good Vietnamese and only a few sayings in English mostly dealing with buying and selling
