Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

This was the scene off the shore of Cat Ba Island. Entire floating villages of fish farmers moved their little towns into the shelter of this bay, as a hurricane approached the coast of Vietnam. It was unusual enough to see these villages of 40 to 100 floating homes spread around Ha Long Bay, but to see them actually move their homes from one location to another is the kind of thing that alters your entire perspective on how the world works.
