I like Oudong, it's very cool, but never did the trip to Silk Island.
Feeling lazy. Is there a link on how to get there ? Ferry leaves from ? Thanks.

I actually rented a place for the weekend on Silk Island.
Best night out I ever had. Service was excellent. I have no complaints. However I did feel somewhat isolated on this spot.

It was not.. how you say? Very convenient.
I mean try saying that to someone who is looking for tampons at three in the morning.

Hi Geordiesky,
Would you mind posting more about your trip to Silk Island ? I have to entertain guests very soon and am looking for something to do. I've never been there, so it would be good to have your first hand experience and I'm sure others would also be interested.
So yeah, did you do that through an agent, where did you stay, how much, what to do etc ? :dm: Thanks
