1 Phan Dinh Phung St. Hanoi, Vietnam, 4-3828-2888
So after 5 days in Vietnam, I have finally learned the rules of the road. Rule number 1, when you are crossing the street... just go, don't do anything unpredictable and by all means do not stop to let a car or scooter pass as they will hit you. With 3 million scooters in Saigon and about as many in Hanoi you cannot be timid. You need to take a deep breath and look straight ahead and let the scooters brush by you as you walk. Rule number 2, When you are on a motorbike, it is just best to clos...

... Appliance Street. Fascinating stuff!
Of course, with each block specialising in different products, it also means the street name can change from one block to the next. And they also appear to have various spelling for the same words. So different maps will have different spellings, which will both differ to the street sign that you are looking at! Therefore trying to figure out where you are on a map is difficult at first until you get the general feel ...
... have organized food to be sent to our room from somewhere (??), couldn't care less at the time as we were famished. Then he asked if I needed to change my money to VND. Now, my brain was telling me to be cautious when someone is too nice (a product of western civilization). But my heart was telling me to give this guy a go and gave out my first $100 USD. (I wanted to part with USD as soon as possible as i think the currency is tainted with ...

Nothing can prepare you for the experience of crossing the road here. It is absolutely nuts, Rome and Barcelona have a fair few scooters but never have I seen or heard anything like this. The green cross code clearly got burnt along with the fake large denomination dollar bills you see getting flogged for burning at Buddhist ceremonies. They do have traffic lights and green men but for some reason neither get observed. It actually ...

... hanging from the roof of the cave and of the stalagmites sprouting from its base. Several of the stalagmites reminded me of melted wax dripping from a candlestick. Tid bits of information from my college geology class come swarming back to me and I am reminded that limestone is a relatively soft stone, easily molded by wind and water. I look just above the stalagmites and notice that drops of water ...

... place. Instead I'd like to remain here for a while, even if there is not much to do from a tourist point of view (no big museums, no big monuments). May be it is the fact that it looks like the China I imagined from afar: people, bicycles, rickshaws everywhere, narrow alleys leading to surprising places, food stalls in each and every corner, one shop after the other, noise and more noise, the total chaos. I just hope they decide to protect this atmosphere unlike their ...
Hanoi, Vietnam tonicastells... day. We boarded the train around 6:30 and were shown to our berth. We are sharing a four sleeper room with a drunk guy from Mongolia. I think he had just passed out and we woke him up by entering the room. Bill and I hopped up top and left him alone down below. We are not able to have a conversation with him because he speaks Mongolian and Russian. I am not sure how long he has been on the train, but he has made friends with the train stewardess (is that what ...
