Bamboo Hotel Hue

After returning from Halong Bay we didnt have much planned. We woke to rain and decided to have a lazy day and a late breakfast. We took a walk with Matty & Noosha to get some tickets for the water puppets show that night and headed back to the hotel. I spent the better part of the morning writing this blog (Halong Bay) and uploading picture...

We arrived at our hotel and it was VERY basic but it was so clean so we were happy.
