Hanoi ist kulinarisch ein Volltreff**. Üb**all wird die leck** Hühnchensuppe mit vielen frischen Kräut**n s**vi**t, dazu ord**nlich** Reis, gutes, frisches Fleisch. Bei uns**em Lieblings-Strassencafe haben wir zusätzlich friti**te ...

... by a small boat and passed through a narrow cave which led to a place which had the form of an atoll surrounded by a typical hilly island. It looked like a secret hide out for some pirates. After we came back to our junk we had to head back towards the harbour again but took a different route this time. We had about 3 hours to enjoy the beautiful scenery before enjoying a brunch aboard. After we finished our meal it was time to say goodbye to the crew of the junk and we had ...

... Its in an alley again, but right on the outside of down town Hanoi. So a great location and everything in reach. And with David, you will have the best time ever. he fixed us up with everything we needed. So we dropped the bags and out of the alley to see what Hanoi had to offer us. Well, it looked like Ho Chi Min " revisited" Full of "Scoots" again, but this time more interesting as the streets were much smaller. So not that fast "Scooting" and it looked ...

Mondays are proving to be pretty good days at school. I do have 5 classes: 2 -2nd grades, 2 – 3rd grades and 1 - 5th grade but it doesn't seem long or tough. All the classes are very personable and most are good listeners. The assistants are very helpful too. Put it all together and it makes for a smooth, fast day. I believe I will have my newspaper kids meet on Monday. I mentioned it to them last week and they’ve asked me everyday when the newspaper club starts.

We talked for a few minutes and then decided that we would join them for a beer or two, so we went to their guest house to collect the other American before setting out on our bar finding mission. It took a while to find a place that wasn't obnoxiously loud, closed, or a night club, but we finally prevailed in a newly opened place called Studio. It was really trendy looking, and Cory and I thought that we shouldn't go in because trendy generally equals ...

... all wearing white sailor hats in addition to a uniform. They were amazed by us, more Pete's locks I imagine. We got back in the cyclo and headed for our next destination - the 'Hanoi Hilton' aka Ho Lao Prison. Our guide again waited for us as we walked through the prison that was the site of a village before those lovely French came along and demolished it making room for the prison (France had colonised most of Indochina - Nam, Cambodia and Laos - I say colonised, I mean destroyed ...

... know we have a fire going, Dave has flicked the poop we could smell into never-never land, the sun has gone down and the frogs in the paddy field opposite are going like the clappers. Perfect. That's when the locals turned up, local men I should say. Two groups, one of older men and the other younger guys. I don't know if it was an orchestrated 'attack' but they all arrived at the same time, hauling themselves up into the cave (not an easy entrance) with ...
