Into the cloud-shrouded mountains.
The lodge itself.
The pool.
Our room.
After a fine lunch, we decided to explore.
A hammock beckoned.
That grin means Hanoi is far away.
Beautiful grounds.

The village itself was only a short walk away.
The village women weave gorgeous fabrics reminiscent of those we loved in Guatemala.
O. made some new friends who were ready to follow her anywhere.
We also had a close encounter with a water buffalo.
After our walk, we napped. The beds were blissfully soft. Dinner was delicious, especially the traditional squid stuffed with minced pork, and the bartender made an excellent mojito.
All in all, a beautiful, tranquil Christmas day.

Next: Day 2. Hiking and biking through the rice paddies.

your post reminds me about my trip to Mai Chau in this year spring :).
Did you try bamboo dance? I made my first steps in Mai Chau and it was so funny. all in all, a good spot for weekend!
A very happy new year to you both. May your adventure get better and better.
Yen- We passed on the bamboo dance but joined everyone for the circle dance at the end. We enjoyed Mai Chau very much.
Al- The best of the New Year to you too. Always good to hear from you.
