Hi everyone!Hope you're all OK. x Daddy, Happy Birthday for tomorrow from me and Stu. Have a brilliant time in Dublin! Love you lots. x Well, we made it to Hanoi - apparently against all odds if you believe the guidebooks which state, "it's probably not a good idea to fly with Laos Airlines unless you have no alternative"!Having this in mind there was already a bit of apprehension on our parts when we boarded the plane, and our minds weren't exactly...
