231008 – Sapa trek

231008 – Sapa trek

Rise and arrange day-pack

Healthy breakfast with Andy, most of group

Gear-up an store main-packs

Mini-bus to trail start, local women swarming, narrow road with dude washing his car in the stream

Head off on trek, local women following us

Down, across bridge,

Tea with local home – drunk husband, local women waiting in distance

Start of the slippery trail, local women helping, using walking pole

Brief stops at huts

Death-like descents, woman not helping

Lunch – cucumber, tomatoe, egg sandwhiches

Continue on via the main-road

Next trail descent

Catch motorcycle from village with Sat and Sophie

Scooter ride to the home-stay

Chill for afternoon, till the others arrive

Sort beds,

drinks, entre and mains

Karaoke, random singing, complaints from neighbours

Girls get Ham drunk

Early night for me
