Sorry about the photos used for the postcards, they are all a lie but the internet here is so slow we haven't been able to use our own photos. We are now in Hanoi after a gruelling 23 hour bus journey broken up over 2 days. Not as bad as it sounds though, I think we are pretty much trained now for these journeys. The capital is pretty hectic and there are 1000s of motorbikes coming from all directions and you could spend all day playing a very popular game in Hanoi, crossing the road. The art is to walk slowly and not stop - they will miss you!!! It actually works....so far! We are off to Halong Bay on the 14th Feb for 3 days cruising round the number 1 natural wonder in Vietnam, 1000s of limestone islands rising up from the Gulf of Tonkin (a sea for those idiots out there). It's our treat for Valentines. Only cost 25 quid all inclusive - think I might stay here a while. As I said before, we will update the pictures for ones that we took at some point, but for now the written stuff is really us!!!!
