My trip to Vietnam. #Part two.

Note: I do not intend to brag or show off my experiences at all. I am very fortunate enough to be apart of World Challenge and go on a month long trip to Vietnam.

So where did we leave it?

After the acclimatisation trek we took a bus to Dalat. Wow, was that an experience or what? It was amazing, Dalat was so different to the other places we went to and boy was it beautiful. It was very built up and it seemed like the Vietnamese government had invested a lot of time into the city.

After a late lunch I decided I wasn't going to go back to dinner, and I think it was because I was missing home a little also. So I was in my room alone and then at about 9pm the girls came back. Then my lovely teacher brought be back two Kit Kats, oh she is wonderful. We then, that night all the girls got together again and we started packing for the 5 day trek that we were about to endure. Luckily for me, I had packed my bags while they were out for dinner.

The Walking Dead was on multiple times while I had been there. I don't know why, but when I am at home, I don't find it all that appealing. But it was pretty good, if I can say myself. I would always ask Jade, "So what does it mean if they did this?" "Or this" "Are they a Zombie yet?" I think she got sick of me by the end.

Here are some photos from the trek that I hope you enjoy:

Me, you know chilling on a mountain view

Due to the river crossing that we had done, our shoes and socks were wet. No dryers, so fire was the best option

Oh, isn't this cute.

Blowing our mattresses and putting up our tents before dark.

The trek was amazing, I would do it in a heart beat. Maybe not the actual walking part. I think that was pretty hard with a back back on. Mind you we all had to carry food and water, because some places we couldn't get water from a running stream or the van wouldn't be able to reach us. So taking food and water was obviously essential to survive. 

While on trek, Chloe had sprained her ankle, so I lent her my walking poles. So the boys had offered to take her bag from her to relieve her of some of the pressure placed on her ankle by her bag. 

After trek we also had found out that our Scottish expedition leader's birthday was on the last night of Dalat, so the girls, Jade, Jess and Amy went to the bakery, (Sorry, I forgot someone!) and brought Ali a cake. He didn't know that we knew his birthday. Thankfully to Simon, he looked at the Challenger Manual which had everyones date of birth and their citizenship and saw that his birthday was then.

That sexy face.

Chicken Schnitzel, taste actually quite amazing.

Happy Birthday, Ali.

I know it is only a short entry, but after this, I'm trying to recover the photos that I lost, luckily the majority of my photos, I have. But the other 400, not so much. I will most likely write but with no photos, sorry. 

I hope you enjoyed!
