Sa Pa, Vietnam

Sa Pa would have been magical even if I had known to expect it. But few foreigners had preceded me and the word was not yet out on this colorful destination.

Arrival in Sa Pa was made even more invigorating by the fact that I had just struggled up the back side of the mountain with a flat tire on my rented Russian motorbike. The night prior was spent in a hell-hole of a town on the Chinese border after three days of constant breakdowns and flat tires. So it was a truly wonderous arrival.
