Started quite late at 9 am cos' slept well last night. Weather cloudy but haze has improved compared yesterday. On route QL2 , the next big town is Doan Hung 48 km away, and then a left turn leads you to another route QL70 all the way to Yen Bai. Today terrain saw some rolling hills but not too steep to climb. Arrived in Yen Bai train station at 3 pm with many hotels around. Checked in the cheapest hotel in Vietnam so far for 70000vnd, very basic room with just a small bed,a table , awall fan and shared bathe room. No internet around cos' the town center is still 1 km away. Had done a survey on a small route 151 to lao Cai along the Song Hong River,but the road condition is terrible. So tomorrow will have to back track 10 km back on QL70 and probably stay in Pho Rang, expecting another century ride again.
