Sapa village experience

After making some friends with the slightly stalkerish village ladies in town, we agreed to come with them/walk 3-4 hours through the rice terraces and mountains to their village and stay there for the night. This includes beautiful scenery, free home cooked meals, a cute little bed and blanket, and special rice wine!
Whats the catch? in exchange they request for us to buy some of their handmade trinkets... which turned out to be pretty expensive, but compared to America it was peanuts.

What did we eat for breakfast lunch and dinner? Rice, Tofu, fresh bamboo and local kinds of spinach/greens. Sometimes instant noodles. 

They pretty much were... trying to get us drunk?
