Hue Queen Hotel

... 1 wife and 142 kids, how can you not be loved? More pressing question is, how do you have time to do anything related to work? How can you possibly remember so many names and faces? How do you live in a household with 501 women vying for your love and attention? Do they all PMS at the same time?! That would be a nightmare! The good news is that he had 74 sons and 68 daughters so that's a few less women to PMS at the same time ...

<br>After<br>spending about 10 hours in the car yesterday last night we decided to<br>stretch our legs and walk around Hue and eat! Walking past the hotel<br>area we went to search for a Hue specialty: Banh Chung Nhat Le. We<br>didn't see one other foreigner as we walked and when we found a spot<br>the owner of the restaurant was so nice and amazed that we found his<br>place. He motioned for us to sit on two ...

... br><br>We completely stuffed ourselves with dinner. I felt sick afterwards and went to the room. Initially I thought it was from over eating, and then the deluge began. I had food coming out of both ends, frequently. My body wanted to rid itself of it&#8217;s contents and it did so in a vicious manner. Our room was pretty much all one entity, there were two double beds in the main room, and right behind them was the bathroom, or my room. Everything could be heard, and smelled ...

21's / Uno / Caramel Vodka - the Party Train from Hue to Hanoi<br>The night train from hue to Hanoi was 13 hours but full of good old fashioned fun.<br><br>There were 16 of us traveling together on the train so the time passed quickly - a few games then drinking games and then sleep.<br><br>21's everyone losses or wins depending on your outlook. Great fun - up there with the Porto football bash (twenty ....... just for you Moony)<br><br>

... degree temperatures. Our drive from the airport to the hotel revealed streets that seemed deserted compared to Hanoi and residences/buildings with less ornamentation or color. Gray seemed to be the hue of the day, in fact, although one might attribute that to clouds and precipitation. We had selected a rather high-end resort for our stay in Hue although probably wouldn't have splurged so much if they hadn't had a promotion of stay 3 nights/pay 2. As it was, we ...

... Brits in particular was very friendly and invited me to travel with them. However, they were leaving Hue the next day and I had already booked a tour and was planning on staying at least another night. I got their information so that we can possibly meet up later. <br><br>Monday morning I woke up early and headed to the river and boarded a boat adorned with dragons, ready for a full day of touring. For five dollars I was promised a full eight hours of touring as well as a lunch. Once we ...

... It is more than 300m high and 20-30m wide. It is amazing to watch the silver water running into the bright red of water-rail flowers. Lunch in restaurant. <br><br>Pm go to Hoian with stopover at Lang Co beach, Hai Van Pass, Cham museum and Marble mountains. Arrive at Hoian ...

... under construction. After that we went to a pagoda and then took a boat back down the river. When we were in the Citadel I noticed this guy and said to Nat.. he is a famous English actor and Nat said... yeah.. looks like him but its not... I had my doubts... but on the boat on the way back down the river Shirl starts up a conversation and as it turns out it was Jonathan Davis... Shirl was over the moon and got a picture taken with him.<br>

... today was a knockout, blue skies, green islands, white sandy beaches, that's more like it! ;) <br><br> <br><br>We had a pretty rough breakfast of what tasted like McEggs served with very processed white bread, with the usual VERY sweet Vietnamese coffee which felt like your teeth were rotting as you drank it!<br><br><br><br>Our captain then upped anchor and went off to ...

... Palace. Rode all the way back into town on the back of a motorbike. Even Mandy was game! Both safe drivers so a huge tip. Got to the Citadel in gathering darkness. Couldn't go in but very long and impressive from outside. Down to the internet cafe where nothing worked, then off to a nine course banquet with live entertainment in another fleet of taxis.
