Halong Bay, Hanoi, Vietnam, Bangkok, Thailand

First stop today was at a pearl farm.  They raise oysters in this part of the sea.  There are nets below the buoys-

The oysters are collected in many baskets-

And stored around the docks of the farm-

This man is pulling the pearl out of the shell-

The finished product-
