After a horrible night, I left the hotel and waited for the sleeping bus I booked that supposed to bring us to Sapa. After a long wait and an hour of panicking, it finally arrived. So there weren't seats and it was all bed. The condition of the bus ain't that good but this was the first time I step into a sleeping bus! Obviously a better place to be sleeping in. Okay one bad thing about me is that I always always want to enjoy the scenery along the way in the bus/train, but 90% of the time I will fall asleep. I can never stay awake on a long bus/train ride. Even on a short one that's like half an hour to an hour long... I'll resist falling asleep as much as I can. Anyway the bus ride was like 5-6 hours!? Arrived there at only 1pm.
Checked into Bamboo Sapa Hotel and the scenery was so breathtaking!!! The sky was so starry at night too. I've never seen so many stars in the sky before. I would have enjoyed the Sapa trip more if my mood wasn't ruined the previous night HAHA.
Cat Cat Village
Trekked up to Cat Cat Village that's the nearest in town. You have to buy the ticket to enter the village which is just at the entrance. But it was almost closed by the time we arrived there as I took a power nap in the afternoon and only woke up at about 3pm. Hahaha. It was so dark when we went back down! And look at the sign, it was so misleading, 'Come Back'!? But yeah that's the exit, we asked the man who sold us the ice-cream heheh. It was so dark so there were like some man asking if we wanna take a motorbike back so we decided to ride back up! Oh my god it was so cold and windy taking the right up the mountain!! It was so dark and damn it was a good ride.

This is the next morning and the view from the hotel! This was at about 6-7am I think.
Headed to the bus waiting area that's around here and took the long bus ride back to Hanoi once again!
