reaching new heights
We set off on a mini van, got to the harbour and boarded a boat where we’ll be entertained on for the rest of the day. The “host” aka Funky Monkey told everyone he was gonna be leading us through the programs and did his darnest to lighten up everyone’s mood. Before we had time to wonder away, we reached the snorkelling spot. Half the passesengers on board were locals and strangely none of them had come on this tour with the intention to dive. So there we were; silly tourists jumping off the boat, drifting about in our big round floats like a circus act. For a split second it almost felt like we were there entertaining the spectators on board with our antics. This will sadly be true in a couple of hours away…
After a sumptous lunch we anchored on another spot and the liqour came pouring. The sea instantly became our pool bar as we laid in our floats savouring delicious vietnamese wine with pineapple slices. It felt so right basking in the sun, relishing in the carelessness of being… now that’s what i call a real pampering! A certain angmo had a drink too many and let’s just say he decided to be our main sort of entertainment for the rest of the journey. He sang, hopped around with glee, wrestled people down to have photos taken with him and practically cracked up everyone on board when he decided to re-enact the Titanic scene at the tip of the boat. Shortly, he blacked out and laid unconscious on the boat while everyone else went onto shore to participate in watersports.
We did para-sailing.
