McDonald said in an interview on CNN television that Ha Long Bay in northeastern Viet Nam was one of the most stunning boating destinations anywhere in the world. The mysterious limestone caves on Ha Long Bay's bigger islands and the "incredible sunsets" were two sights not to be missed, McDonald said on CNN.-VNS
