Day 66 only! Today we have come to a beautiful little ancient town/village called Hoi an and it's our favourite place so far! (I know I keep saying that lol but this actually is!) it's so peaceful and chilled out compared to the other places we have visited in Vietnam so far which is nice! We are just sitting having some lunch on the river and thought whilst I had wifi - Hoi-an deserves it's only blog entry and I will do Da nang separately in a few days before ...

59-63 VIETNAM! We have had a busy time whilst in Hanoi (capital of Vietnam)! We basically got off the plane and the next day went on our 1 night 2 day boat trip to Halong Bay! This was AMAZING! Halong bay is one of the beautiful places in the world and our boat was very nice, we explored sung sot (surprise) cave , hiked up to the Titov viewpoint, went Kayaking and learnt how to make Vietnamese fresh spring rolls (not the Chinese deep fried ones!). The food was ...

Day 57-59! So we have spent the day in Bangkok (well in a place called Lat Krabang) which is right near the airport as a stop over before our flight to Hanoi tomorrow morning! It's been 34 degrees today and it's a really humid/stuffy heat! We walked out to the local shopping mall this morning to have a mooch as we woke up at 7am (we've come back in time 6 hours from New Zealand so we keep falling asleep early and waking up early!) luckily this is our last major...

Day 54-57 Well we have enjoyed Wellington just as much the second time round!! We really love it here! Again we have spent most of our time eating and drinking (which hasn't helped my slimming world - but I talk myself into cheating easily enough ''we're only here once Steph so you may aswell eat the cake'' haha!). Today we walked up mount Victoria which had stunning views of the city however it's been boiling here today so we didn't really choose the best way t...

Day 51-54 Well after a relaxing few days in Christchurch we are now back on the ferry to Wellington! We had a long drive yesterday which took us 8 hours including stops! That was abit of a killer but the views over the Marlborough vine yards was amazing! We went out for a lovely Indian on our last night in Christchurch which was delicious and the first curry we have had in ages! I will post some pics of the drive now! The ferry is 3 and a half hours which is ...
