1/12 Yen Thai Street, Hoan Kiem District Hanoi, Vietnam, +84-4-3-938-1245
Hanoi is cool. tonnes of motorbikes everywhere. Explored the Old Quarter & went to see the Water Puppets show which is good fun - the dragons were the best. The puppets weren't made of water, they are made of wood and dance around on top of the water attached to long poles which are hidden under the water. They were originally invented for enteraining people in paddy fields in the wet season, presumably when there wasn't much paddying to be done.
Pavements in Hanoi are not for walk...

... we can all learn from other cultures and use it to see ours with fresh eyes. Much like the anthropological idea that we can only truly begin to undertsand our own culture when we have got to know others. <br><br>The schools in Vietnam are much stricter, there is no accomodating special needs. for example in school if you are left handed you would get wacked on the hand and told to change (sorry K!), the class sizes are big (40-60) and creativity is promoted less. Despite this they ...

Trang Hideaway Vacation 5days<br>Nha Trang is another scuba centre in Vietnam, and although big animals are hard to find there (apart from the local morays), the abundance of other marine life makes for fascinating diving. Indeed, Nha Trang is renowned for its vibrant nudi-branchs and extensive coral biodiversity ...
Hanoi, Ha Nội, Vietnam vietnamholidaySabrina : "It took me a bit of time to adjust to the Hanoi's rythm. Scooter driving everywhere and anywhere but somehow all aware you are here. Crossing the road is also a skill. You just have to stay calm and cross the road one step at the time. Micro stalls where Vietnamese people sat on to have a drink of eat the food cooked on the street, ladies with conical hat selling fruits, fish, fried crickets, warms, bicycles, scooters carrying the ...

Hanoi, Vietnam nickietrips... re on a losing streak with little cash left, and the board is covered with hotels, none of which belong to you. At any moment you could lose it all – what little you have left anyway. The relief of making a safe step toward the other side of the street is like rolling the dice, moving your man and landing on one of the only few spots that hasn’t got a hotel. Yes! I’m alive and still in the game! At least for now.

Hanoi, Dac Lac, Vietnam dhtravel51Stretching out before us was the expansive bay of Ha long, hundreds and hundreds of tall islands spread out over a huge archipeligo. We had decided to spend three days out in ha long, two cruising on a baot and the last travelling back. The scenerey as amazing, so many islands and so quite and supprisingly so few other boats. Annoyingly, when we stopped to go kayaking, I jumped in and slit my thumb right open to the bare bone, it didn't bleed to much fortunatly and we were ...
Hanoi, Vietnam cavalierx... of southeast asia has been the utility nail. Almost exclusively seen on men, the utility nail can sometimes consist of just one single nail, quitely cultivated and groomed to a good 1/2-2 inch (I have even seen one bordering on 3 inches!) or it can be a set of various nails. Some of these nails can include the pinky, which seems to be among the most popular nail to grow as a utility nail. Others may be the thumb, which seems to be the most cumbersome, or the index ...

Alan had a fine tip from a man in Sydney, 'try the chocolate buffet at the Metropole Hotel in Hanoi'. The kids are forever in his debt ........so much chocolate, so little time! Who needs the easter bilby after all!
Hanoi, Vietnam adbct... unoccupied. The Vietnamese man rudely said that there were no $10 rooms available, just some for $14 a night. By this time, Lisa was getting upset and we explained that we would be checking out the next morning. After eating one of our staple foods in Hanoi later that night, the Donair Kebob for 15,000 dong, we began walking around and searching for a new room. On our first try we located a hotel on the street behind our current hotel called Wing Caf ...
