We made it to Sa Pa!

It was our shortest day, but rain and cold slowed us down a bit.

It felt strange that we were looking for hot drinks today, after so many days of seeking shade and water.  The roads were good today, I'm very happy we didn't need to contend with the rough terrain from yesterday coupled with rain and mud.

We had lots of great views, and the kids love waving and yelling as we go by.

Now we're in a beautiful hotel suite in Sa Pa, for $20 including breakfast. The clouds are all around us, we can see the mist floating everywhere. It isn't exactly raining, but we were soaked when we got here.

Tomorrow we ride to Lau Cai and put the bikes on a train for Hanoi.
