Halong Bay, Vietnam (Part 2)

Hi all, so now Go!Mitty going to blog about Halong Bay again. So so so sorry for the slow and late update on this. Was busy doing research for my upcoming Krabi and Taiwan trips.
U all will forgive me right? (tqvm for ur kindness.. <3)

So, after taking our lunch, visited and sprained my ankle at Surprising Cave, and kayak at Floating Village, Halong Christina Cruise brought us to Titop Island before the sunset.

While I was surveying the overnight cruise, my first concern was the price,and second was: Will the cruise go to Titop Island. 

Sure you are wondering why I want to go Titop Island badly. Well, my pictures will answer the question.

Finally I stepped onto this magical island in Halong Bay.

The kids are happy when the cruise dropped us at this island because finally they can have a quick swim in the bay. But, once I put my feet on this island, I told my parents, I am going to hike to the peak of this island. I want to immerse myself at the panoramic view of Halong Bay from the peak point. So, Go!Mitty. Hike alone. >.<
The loneliness and tiredness(I have poor stamina~) finally….. like really, finally! I am here!!!! Tadaaa… panoramic view of Halong Bay!!!!

We are allowed to stay on Titop Island for 1 hour and I spent 30minutes up there. I keep smiling alone looking at this wonderful view, one of the best view I ever saw in my life. The weather is overcast, that why it looks not so attractive from my pictures. But, trust me, you can feel my happiness when you are standing up here.

After spending an hour here, we went back to cruise and had our Vietnamese spring roll making class and dinner. Then, we sleep like a baby through the night.
On the second day, before we headed back to Halong Pier, we stopped by at this Pearl Farm. So, they showed us how the pearl is form, how they breed and harvest the pearls.

So, there is a shop selling accessories made from pearl.
dscf0310_副本Which one is nice on me?
Anyway, I didn’t buy any.

After visiting the pearl farm, we had our lunch on cruise and sail back to the pier. And, we saw the famous Fighting Cocks on our way back.
