Next morning, we went kayaking through some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen. Here's someone else's piture of it --> http://www.trekearth.com/gallery/Asia/Vietnam/photo27164.htm.
There is a little fishing village commune there where the people live in houses fixed on floating docks and the children row to the village school. Most of the docks had dogs sitting around on them. I was hoping those dogs liked to swim, else I couldn't figure out how they get any excerise. Eliza and I mentioned that we'd love to live in this tranquil place and our Viatnamese guide said "Are you kidding? I've been working here for two months and I'm already bored of coming out here everyday!"
We "landed" (docked) at a floating museum about the village and her villagers. The most interesting thing I saw at the museum was a government concept plan to turn the village into a solar powered village (Do the villagers even care to have power? Our guide said, "Of course!" I'm not so sure they want their village turned into solar cells.)
The rest of the trip consisted of lunch and the boat and bus trip back to Hanoi.
