Riding motorbikes through North Vietnam Day 6 Riding

in travel •  7 years ago  (edited)

My brother (@fronttowardenemy) and I went to Vietnam recently. Join us on our ride through the mountains.

We woke up to an awesome breakfast from our host. I'm not sure how to describe this treat. They were like pancakes but more of a fry bread. Inside were banana slices. I think I ate four of them, Delicious! The sliced pears were good too.

We left Ba Be Lake after breakfast and had to do about forty five minutes of back tracking before we got on the road we needed. Once again it was a bit hazy in the morning but would eventually burn off.

Around 11 the sun started coming out and we decided that we would stop in Na Hang for lunch. Little did we know then that we would be spending the night there. The area leading up to Na Hang was picturesque and it seemed to have a bit of a touristy vibe because it was near a big river.

We stopped to take pictures and heard some running water and saw a footbridge across the street. There ended up being a cool little waterfall hidden back there.

We got into Na Hang and had lunch then we were back on the road. Unfortunately for us, google maps wasn't exactly sure where our turn was to get to the road we needed. It was pointing us up some dirt paths that just didn't feel right. We ended up riding around a lake and not getting anywhere so we decided to head back to Na Hang and find a place for the night.

Here is a shot of the lake we were lost near. Very scenic and also frustrating

After we got to Na Hang and found a place to stay, we hit the streets and found some dinner. The ladies in this place were characters as well as awesome chefs.

Great! You have had wonderful times in Vietnam. There are many more tourist attractions. May you discover it all

I would like to visit again someday :)

I was in Vietnam 5 years. It was great. Now, I am near Seattle.

The scenery in Na Hang is beautiful

Yes it was great.

Yum breakfast 😊

It was soooo good!

i really enjoyed , awesome story

Vietnam breakfast and place is very nice.

It was very peaceful there. :)

I bet there are some awesome bananas in Vietnam. It's nice our Cavandish bananas don't have seeds but it would be cool to eat other varieties of bananas even if they have seeds.

Bananas everywhere!!

I need to visit! lol

wow, you have a great trip, welcome to Viet Nam.
Vietnamese dishes simple but delicious does not it?

You said it! Simple yet delicious!

Yes, sorry I'm not good at English
Thank you for correcting me

Hey Doc, I'm Oatmeal Joey, and I was in Vietnam for 5 years teaching English mostly in Saigon in case you don't know. You told me about the Portland, Oregon, USA Steem Meet coming in a week or so. Thanks.

I used to ride my bicycle around HCM a lot. I was in Hanoi, Saigon, Dalat City, and around those places but not through the whole country. I love rice. Beautiful places and people for sure. Cam on = thank you.

Cool man! Hope to see you at the meet up. :)

Beautiful place! I would like to visit in Vietnam. Maybe in the future...

Beautiful and eye catching scenery. The food looks delicious.

Mate, what a great adventure, riding bikes through mountains with the bro, living the dream!

...must admit taking in the local food is one of my most favorite things to do when exploring new places, looks good :)

Thanks for sharing your view on Vietnam - some great footage.

Cheers!! I wish I would have taken more pictures... but you have to enjoy the moment as well. :)

Nice place. I like it. thanks
