We managed to get in a reasonable nights sleep, ignoring the setting of our body clocks. Both of us awoke around 7am which is strange because I am not afraid to admit that a typical morning involves me sprinting to make the last bus to downtown. Today, we are early risers.
We headed down to the hotel lobby to seek out some sustenance. The guidebooks suggest beef broth as a lovely way to start off your morning. I like to respect local customs and blend, but I'm not going to be a local ...
I took an early morning flight to Hanoi so that I could enjoy the whole day. Hanoi is a city of broad, tree-lined boulevards, lakes, parks, buddhist temples and weathered colonial buildings. Even though the haze was so dense to make the sky gray, that couldn't hide Hanoi's charm. The city remains small and compact, historic and charming. The Old Quarter consists of dozens of small streets where vendors' goods are piled up and commerce is quite active. This form of communism is completely cont...

Our train arrived to Hanoi at 4:00 in the morning! How stupid. We were so excited to check in to the Intercontinental, but of course they didn't let us until 10am. So we walked around Lake Ho Tay (West Lake), had coffee, and ate some really good Bun Cha at a street vendor. The city was really peaceful at this time in the morning. We used hotel points for the Intercontinental and spent our money on wine and food. We hit up happy hour at Vine and had 2 for 1 glasses of wine and champagne. We or...

GOOD MORNING VIETNAM We arrived here last evening after another tiring day through the most beautiful countryside and into the busheling traffic of Hanoi. We entered Hanoi on a remote track down the levees of the Red River. I have taken my Chevy to the Levee in Hanoi. The people here seem so nice and happy. It is very hard to tell what is beneath in a communist country. They seem to be well clothed and fed. We took a ride at dawn this morning to see the city waking up. It was really neat. Our...

... from the corner of his mouth. There were also other indicators of western influence visible as we drove along. For example, I didn't know they ate 'pizza' in Hanoi but there was sign advertising an 'after hours pizza delivery service'.<br> Closer to our destination,we crossed a few very wide rivers. The bridges spanning across them, were new looking concrete constructions. I looked down upon the waters of one river and estimated that our ...

So I will traverse on foot, rain jacket around my waist and a map in hand and try to get to the neighborhood where my school is Van Phuc in the Ba Dinh district. I have photo-ed a map to give you an idea where I am staying and where school is.<br>The Pearl hotel is across the street from a small free zoo, lake and amusement park. I ventured out into ...

I wouldn't have had a clue otherwise!<br><br>The old town sits on the side of a lake. There is a story about the lake where an old king gave his sword to a giant turtle in the lake after a battle and the turtle took it away. Apparently once a year a giant turtle comes up to the top of the lake. As we were going past the ...
