Jan 5, 2008 - Vietnam - Cuc Phuong National Park via Ninh Binh(Balunn)

We booked our trip from Cat Ba Island to Ninh Binh through our hotel thinking that would make it quicker and easier, but instead of taking the normal one ferry and one bus, they sent us on 3 buses and one ferry. We were hoping that I would feel better by 3rd January so we could go on a 16km trek through Cuc Phuong National Park, but I wasn't feeling good enough for doing a big walk so instead we went to the Endangered Primates Center and saw some awesome monkeys. ... We then went on an easier 7km walk and stayed in the National Park that night, hoping I would be up to the big walk the next day.We booked our trip from Cat Ba Island to Ninh Binh through our hotel thinking that would make it quicker and easier, but instead of taking the normal one ferry and one bus, they sent us on 3 buses and one ferry.
