Like any American, traveling occasionally is just what I love doing and I bet you share the same stuff with me. But traveling does not mean that you would be safe. Escaping from our job and other stressful activities is just something that w Torres del Paine is among the biggest of Chiles national parks, occupying almost 600,000 acres (242,000 ha) of land in the south on the border with Argentina. It is also among the most important, receiving a significant proportion of domes
We chose the Valentine since the pictures of the boat, rooms, andcommon areas looked stunning. At least they did in the pictures. Wewere told that some boats the look nice in the pictures are very oldbut they use the pictures from when they first sailed. We also likedthat this boat only had 5 cabins for a maximum of 10 people when somealternatives had as many as 25 cabins and 50 people.One otherpositive was that the boat supposedly would be away from other boatswhen it was time to sleep and that it had it's own private dock awayfrom the hoards. When we first boarded the boat I was in awe. The boatwas just as promised and only a couple of months new. We took a smallboat to reach the Valentine and I thought it was a little bizarre thatno one else was on this boat. It turns out that Stacy and I were theonly guests on the entire boat (there was also a travel agentinspecting the boat).As a result they gave us the Presidents suite which we were told was the biggest cabin in all of Halong bay.It was huge with a Jacuzzi tub and separate marble bathroom and rainshower. The walls were made of thatched bamboo and dark wood thatglistened in the sun. The ceiling was almost high enough for a secondfloor! The top deck had 6 gorgeous teak loungers that we had toourselves. Soon after we arrived on the boat the ship began to sail andwe sat down to our 5 course lunch. I only wish I knew it was 5 coursesso I could have paced myself. Delicious soup, papaya salad that lookedtoo good to eat, perfect lemongrass shrimp, thai chicken, and dessertwere some of the items. After lunch we visited an island that hadseveral steps leading up to a sweeping view of Halong Bay.After snapping too many pictures we were soon back on the boat sailingsome more and then off to a secluded bay for a little kayaking.Nearly the entire time sailing we only saw the 3 other boats thecompany owned (Ginger, Jasmine, Indochina) but at this bay it was justour boat. It was so great to be the only guests, they completely workedaround our schedule and asked us what we wanted to do of all theoptions. Kayaking was a highlight of the trip. No one else around andthe water so still that it looks like glass. The reflection of the rockformations and trees looked nearly identical whether looking at themstraight on or it's reflection in the water.Back on the boat for some relaxation and then we had dinner. Anothermeal with too many courses, this time we joined the travel agent(Simon) and an employee of the company. Later after dinner we took thesmall speed boat to the Indochina sails to listen to some livetraditional Vietnamese music and eat squid that was caught just 15minutes before we arrived. May have been the best I have ever tasted.When we got back on our boat, I grabbed a fishing pole and tried mybest at catching some squid.This is more fun than normal fishing because you can see the squidin the bright light that was shining on the water and once you see thesquid close to the lure you pull up to catch it. I caught one butsurprisingly it was during one of the only times I wasn't actuallytrying to catch one. It was nearly 12:30P when I went back to the cabinto sleep. I didn't want to go to bed since I knew that I would wake upwith the main part of the trip already over. Plus, I wanted to make itto the 6:30A kayaking adventure.Source: TravelPod
