Phu Quoc

Phú Quốc is the largest island in Vietnam. Phú Quốc and nearby islands are like the Hawaii of Vietnam with its white sand beaches, and fishing and agricultural economy.  Our trip to Phu Quoc starts with a pretty long ferry ride, but we occupy the downstairs eating instant noodles.

 

We then land and we have dinner at a restaurant called Xin Chao (Hello). And true to Phu Quoc style it is seafood.  Starting from the biggest picture clockwise:  My nephew eating, half shell clams topped with peanuts, a sweat and sour hotpot soup, fruit, fish coated in a red tseasoned sauce, crispy coated snail with a mayionaise based sauce, squid with bell peppers,

We then cheked into the Hoa Binh Phu Quoc Resort.  Hibicus welcomes us as we trek to our 8 room bugalow.   We then split into our rooms to rest.

After resting and getting settled into our rooms, off to the pepper farm.  It was Sophia’s first time seeing a pepper plant.

Then to the rose myrtle garden for wine and pictures.  I’m splitting these trips up so one page does not take forever to load.
