More Ninh Binh








Today was another good (and long) day in and around Ninh Binh. In the morning we went to a preserve to see the endangered Duoc Langur. Instead, we managed to see four not-so-endangered langurs of a different type (Erika - help me out here) on a cliff about 200 meters away. The image above is an extreme crop from a telephoto lens. The rest of the day we visited various temples and rice fields and managed to sneak in a 2-hour and much-needed nap in the middle of the day. We have one more full day in this region before we head back to Ha Noi. We're still dog-tired, but having a blast.

Unfortunately I am not very good with Langurs, but they are cute! Great pictures - I think you are capturing a lot of the culture and beauty of the countries!
