Well after thankfully moving to a much nicer hotel Nik went with some of the group to see the preserved body of Ho Chi Minh. Bit of an undescribable experience but glad I went. We all met up and went for a walk around the lake and over the bridge, to the opera house and to St Josephs Cathedral. Ang had an interesting Cyclo experience with people walking faster than the old man who was pedalling could manage! Tonight we say goodbye to some of the group who are goi...

When we arrived in Ha Noi Pok took us for a walk around the old quarter and we went to kfc for lunch! We met up with Sarah and Vicky, went to a water puppet show and for some drinks with the rest of the group after dinner. This is the first and hopefully the last time we have a very dodgey hotel, and debatebly better than some of the over night trains!
