A little trek in Sapa

A few years ago on one of my trips to Vietnam, I did a Sapa trek -- very much to my surprise since I am rather allergic to the word "trek". I am not in shape and not the right age anymore for this sort of entertainment after leading a non sporting life.

Yet, it was a great experience and I hope to do it again some day.

Here is my photo report about it: http://tinyurl.com/2emu79o

Enjoyed your report. I haven't made it to Vietnam yet, but know that when I do get there that Sapa is on my 'to do' list.

kerouac, we are planning our first trip to Vietnam, for March 2011. I loved reading your blog and looking at your pictures -- may be enough to entice me to take a similar trek, except for the freezing nights in April!

Great writing, but for some reason the pictures just show as [image]. Do I have to register?

thursday,I didn't register - they just opened when I clicked on the link. In fact, I just tried it on this, a different computer, and it worked here to.

Thanks for your detailed report and great photos. Not leaving for Vietnam until next year but have really enjoyed reading Fodorers' reports.

Cheers

Thanks for posting your pictures and report. We'll be in Vietnam in Jan/Feb. Don't know yet if we'll get to Sapa, but your report is inspiring.
