I’ve always strived to be a wordsmith.  I’ve often wanted to fill my world with expressions and poetry.  And I’ve seldom imagined meeting a place that would render me speechless.  Hạ Long did exact this.  I have no vocabulary to describe the awe and pride that transfixed me when I arrived here.  Hạ Long carved a visual and emotional beauty in my mind for which I’m forever grateful.  And I hope it will for you as well…
