Ha+Long+Bay

Sitting on a boat in the middle of Ha Long Bay Drinking Hanoi beer in the middle of Ha Long Bay The islands erupt from the water like a whale leaping up in play The sun on the sea like diamonds in Ha Long Bay

The fisherfolk row with their feet in Ha Long Bay There's some have never stood on land around Ha Long Bay The kids play soccer on their floating fields sometimes the ball just floats away Their temple gently moves in time to the water's sway

It's a long way from the office to come here for the day We smile and chatter we try to communicate
