One of the most interesting aspects of Halong Bay was all of the little fishing villages that were on the water along the edge of the mountains
. The day we set sail we were encountered by vendors, no different than before in our travels throughout the countryside except for one big difference, all of these vendors were approaching us by way of row boats! Once we were close enough to their floating village they would paddle out to us and show us their goods they had for sale. Taken back by the efforts of this Rachel and I decided to purchase a large Koch shell from a lady who was selling assorted shells and pearls, after haggling her down"I love free" to almost half price a deal was struck and we had our Souvenir for the trip.
