North Vietnam - the land of waterfalls. This is one of many, it not far from Sapa and is very popular among tourists.
I came here to Motobike with my new friends from Poland - Pshemekom and Agatha.
Met when settled in a hotel, then talked to the lunch, and then together they took on the rental bikes.

An excellent choice - rent a bike, it is worth a penny - 200-300 rubles a day seems to be 3 liters of petrol will last for the whole day, and you can ride through the neighborhood, stopping in mountain villages such here.

On the morning circled near Sapa, at lunch decide to go back to the city market, to eat together with the Vietnamese.
Vietnamese - all fans to devour, to watch them in the process - a curious thing!

As for the Day of Older Persons. I think Vietnam is unlikely there is a holiday, even though it seemed to me to the old people are treated with great care, at least I did not see them so miserable and sick, as we have.
It may be hard peasant life of keeps them in that form. I did not see any fat - all of these lean, active ..

In the market we were seated at a table next to the three village girls. Next to us drank another three friends - one older and two young married woman.
The one older - just the embodiment of joy and health - constantly laughing and sipped from a glass of moonshine.

Portions of the local edalni - th - th! I took the rice and meat - and could not eat up despite a good appetite.
In Agatha - noodles with additives, the Pshemeka soup - noodles. But everything else - is serving our neighbors on the table!

Of course, I doubt that this is all they will eat, but when I saw how quickly disappear from the table, all these dishes, I realized - with an appetite for them everything is OK!

Falls right in the road, but there is absolutely deserted, perhaps because it's spitting all day warm light rain.



When the going down, I saw a girl, selling souvenirs. Well, as traders ...
In the video more clearly, I ugoral ..

The next time you go on about the trip on Motobike and again look at the guests in the farmhouse.
