Goodbye Hanoi!! On the bus leaving Hanoi, 3 hour journey to first stop to get bikes before an easy (??) day of only 55km!!! Haha!! Everyone is really friendly and we all have the same worries, hopefully we will be ok though! Stayed in hang ngok hotel last night, really nice hotel and nice room. Had a group meal in restaurant in Hanoi last night which was good. Hanoi is mad so will be good to get out into the country!! It's hot but not too hot yet! Mixed group,...

I've arrived!! I'm shattered, hot an bothered, swollen ankles....surprise surprise!!! I'm the typical farmers daughter and everyone else look like they have just stepped off the set of sex and the city!! Oh well!! Day off today, going on rickshaws round the city then going to water puppet theatre tonight before welcome dinner and early to bed!!! This place is mad just like Cambodia, mopeds everywhere!! Toe looks mingin and everyone looks so fit, but I'll sold...
