Starting the day with a delicious resort breakfast!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

However, there was a problem with the daily tour scheduled for the third day.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

The travel agency that was supposed to pick us up at our accommodation at 7:30 AM didn’t show up… ^^<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

After nearly an hour of calls and messages… we were told we couldn’t go on the original tour because it was too late (because you didn’t pick us up!!!).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

They apologized and asked if we could do another tour if we came to their office, so…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Sigh, it was difficult to re-plan the day’s schedule on the spot, so we decided to do another tour…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

What’s frustrating is that their office is a bit further down than the Duong Dong<\/a> night market.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It took about 50 minutes just to get there ^^<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I’m so annoyed that I don’t recommend it, but here’s a link for those who are curious… \u2193<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

They told us to come by 9 AM, but we barely made it…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

We were supposed to do Tour 4, but it was changed to Tour 3<\/b>. \u3160\u3160<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I was really curious about the world’s longest cable car…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We had no choice but to change to snorkeling & island tour…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

But when we arrived at the office, they told us they weren’t doing Tour 4 anymore.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

What the heck, guys \u315c\u315c!!!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We were supposed to pay the guide directly on-site after making the reservation, but<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

When I checked again for the post, it had changed to require a 50% deposit.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Why didn’t you do that sooner…… Sigh<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

This was the itinerary for the Southern 3 Islands Tour.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

First, we headed from the office to the port to board the boat~!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

Vendors selling waterproof bags and hats kept approaching us.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I didn’t understand them, so I just kept saying “No, no” and followed the guide \u314b<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Three John’s Tours cruise ships departed together.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We arrived at the island and went snorkeling!!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The quality is terrible because I took pictures with the waterproof bag \u3160\u3160<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

But the water wasn’t clear either.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I heard that Vietnam<\/a> is not recommended for snorkeling because the water is not clear, and it was true…<\/p>\n

(Boracay and Bohol are recommended…)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Anyway, the first and second islands were similar… so I don’t have many photos left.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

After about an hour of playing in the water, we had lunch on the boat!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It rained heavily while we were moving, and I thought, “Is this okay…?” but<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It had almost stopped by the time we ate, which was a relief.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We all ate lunch together at tables gathered closely.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Coincidentally, 3 out of the 4 couples were Korean!! (including us)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

So we chatted a lot while eating and got a lot of useful tips \u314e<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

The taste… was not great \u314e<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

In order:<\/p>\n

Stir-fried squid and vegetables<\/b><\/p>\n

Rice (they also give you scorched rice later)<\/b><\/p>\n

Radish soup<\/b><\/p>\n

Grilled shrimp<\/b><\/p>\n

Braised fish<\/b><\/p>\n

Fried tofu<\/b><\/p>\n

Stir-fried morning glory<\/b><\/p>\n

Rolled omelet<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I drank the radish soup in one gulp and almost threw up;;<\/p>\n

For my taste… only the radish soup was not good…<\/p>\n

I didn’t even eat the grilled shrimp because they said it had no taste. \u314b\u3137<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

The watermelon for dessert was the best \u314e\u314e<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

We moved to the last island by a small boat…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The waves were strong, so they dropped us off at the back of the island.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

They said there’s a beach after crossing through the forest for about 3 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

They hand out green bracelets, and if you have this bracelet, you get discounts on sunbeds on the beach, etc.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

But by the time you shower and come out, you don’t have time to use a sunbed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

(For reference, the shower room is a bit basic.<\/p>\n

It’s not dirty, but it smells a bit.<\/p>\n

The fee is 20,000 VND per person!!<\/p>\n

There’s a staff member sitting in front of the entrance.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

Haha, showing off my photos~<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You hear so much Korean as you walk around \u314b\u314b\u314b<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

I got a coconut ice cream~<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It tastes a bit like fermented melon water.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

They also put coconut flesh inside, but it’s chewy and tasteless;;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Was it even edible…?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

Back to the cruise ship~!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Why is the water clear on this side…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

If it had been this clear during snorkeling, I would have been able to see well \u315c\u315c<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

Cows on the way back…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Cute.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

John’s Tours dropped us off at our accommodation after the tour.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Our accommodation was the farthest, so we were dropped off last.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

The Teddy Bear Museum near Whale Spa!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

So cute \u314e\u314e<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We decided to visit it on the last day.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

And back to Whale Spa \u314b<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The masseuse with pink hair that day was amazing. She was so good.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

So I got a massage from her on the last day too \u314e\u314e<\/p>\n

(It wasn’t a reserved appointment for a specific masseuse, but she happened to be there!!)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

(If you’re curious about Whale Spa, please check out the Day 1 record! \ud83d\ude0a)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

We went into a pho restaurant because we were hungry after the massage!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I always ate breakfast pho, so I was determined to try real local pho<\/b>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We went into a random place we saw.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We ordered the beef encrusted pho, which was the second item on the menu.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

They asked if we wanted to add cilantro, green onions, onions, etc.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I asked them to omit only the cilantro, but I should have omitted all of it…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The aroma had already permeated the other vegetables next to it, so I ended up leaving all the vegetables \u3160\u3160<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

However, I ate all the beef and noodles \u314e\u314e<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The taste was not much different from the breakfast pho!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

I thought, “I’ll eat breakfast pho again tomorrow too.”.. \u314e\u314e<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

Amazing night view \u3137\u3137<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

After quickly eating, we went to see the Venice show at Grand World<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The show runs from 9:30 PM to 10:00 PM, and the best spot is on the Venice bridge in the center.<\/p>\n

(A great tip from a Korean fellow traveler in the tour \ud83d\ude06)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We went a little early, but quite a few people had already gathered.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

My arm was about to fall off from holding my phone up to take pictures \u3160\u3160<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Venice show, which I took with great difficulty, is the end of the day.,,<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It was a fun day despite the frustrating start,<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

and it was a fulfilling day despite being extremely tiring!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
