Met Billy in the morning and went to the Hanoi Hilton museum. Where US pilots were imprisoned during the Vietnam war and also used as a prison during French colonial rule. It was a little bit of a let down, as it was made out to be almost a holiday camp for the pilots, and was completely unrepresentative of what it was like during the war.
We had lunch at a highlands cafe, a western style coffee chain out there which serve food, this particular one was in what was clearly the best appartment towers in Hanoi!
We then went to the old quarter to book the water puppet show for the following day, and rented a DVD player. We went back to the hotel and watched Invictus with Billy before leaving for the final group dinner at a sushi style conveyor restaurant where you pick off food to put into your hotpot.
After dinner we left for a frozen yoghurt place and gave our tour guide the tip from the group, before coming back and piling into our room to watch The Blind Side, the last night as a group and the three people staying on the tour would leave early the next day, so we said our goodbyes that night.
