Good morning Vietnam! Today was our final day in Vietnam and are off to Thailand tomorrow so thought we would tell you about our adventures today before we jet off. Our plan today was to get out and see the sites of Hanoi which are located a little further from the city centre. These sites are all walkable from our hotel but it is so hot in Hanoi it takes a bit of time to get there and when you do eventually arrive you are a bit of a sweaty mess so we had avoi...

Good morning Vietnam! After a quiet last night out in Hue we have finally arrived in Hanoi!I'm pleased to say that the flight was fine, despite any pre-conceptions and we took just 4 hours to get from the hotel in Hue to the hotel in Hanoi - much better than a 16 hour bus journey even if it did cost us £30! Hue is deemed the gateway to the north; therefore we were unsure of what to expect once we got here.Many tales, including a rather in-depth opinion sent ...

Good Morning Vietnam, I'm not going to get to put that as the start to many more blogs as we approach the end of our time here, but hopefully will still have quite a bit to talk about in the next few days so might squeeze it in once or twice.

We arrived h...

Good morning Vietnam, We are still in Hoi An but moving on tomorrow and have just lost Rich today so thought it would be a good point to do a summary of the last few days. When we left you in the last blog we had spent a day wandering around Hoi An and had placed our order for our clothes. Our second day was spent very much like the first and because we were due to go for our second fitting for our clothes at various points of the day we didn't want to go too...

Good morning Vietnam, Well we have been very busy spending all our money and are now in Hoi An, a town famed for its craft shops and tailors. When we last left you we had arrived in Nha Trang and were going out for Katie's birthday. We had booked a table at The Sailing Club for dinner and as we had to book and given its name you can probably imagine we had upgraded a little from our usual street food for the evening. It was lovely and certainly one of the nic...
