Sapa Scenery

The second day of my Sapa adventure led me through muddy rice paddies and down steep mountains to three different H'Mong villages and one Zoa village.  It was very foggy, so there wasn't much to see, but a did get a few worthy pics.

The trails were slick with mud.  I bought a bamboo walking stick from a little girl. 
In Vietnam, the kids start to work as soon as they learn to walk and talk.

The fog cleared after lunch, so I was able to take a few good pics of the rice paddies.



In all, our group walked about 25 km the second day. 
That night, we headed back to the night train and saw this funny traffic sign on the way.  NO CYCLOS!

It was an exhausting day!  Even the squeeeeeel and bounce of the night train couldn't keep us awake.
