Goodbye China, hello Vietnam! This is our walk over the bridge from China to Vietnam.
The view from our balcony in Sapa
Our crappy map lead us straight to this guy's house instead of the village that it's meant to. This is Shane getting directions
Kids at the guy's house were playing peek-a-boo with us
Snapshots of Sapa life
As we head south we're constantly trying to ditch our warm weather clothes. Kerri swapped her fleece jacket for a pretty pillow case with a H'mong woman.
Kerri checking out the pillow case options. Notice the lucky lady who snatched up the fleece already.
A good trade

Shane on the minsk, and the beginning of our 3 day motorcycle trip
About 3 hours south of Sapa
At one point, the road was cut by a river. This is us taking a ferry across
Shane walking the minsk over a bamboo bridge
Our "angel" friend helping us up the path. He was also the one who built the bridge and demanded a huge payoff once we reached the top.
Taking a break from the ride
