5 October - Hanoi Awake a bit after 8.00am. A small sleep in, and, as an added bonus, I feel good. Well, I do for about 15 minutes, when the urge to use the toilet becomes a priority. Back to feeling closer to good, we head over to the balcony around 9.00am. It’s been … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 31
4 October - Ninh Binh - Hanoi Eyes open. It’s light. Apart from that, I know nothing else about this new day. And right now, through the haze of a beer and rice wine hangover, I have no desire to actually know any more about it. I ain’t getting up, yet. I doze, and then … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 30
2 October - Hanoi Wake up a bit after 8.00am. Bit of a sleep in, I suppose. But it hasn’t really helped. I just feel flat. And disappointed. We’ve been away now for pretty much four weeks, so I guess at some point it was always going to happen. Probably a little surprised it hadn’t … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 28
1 October - Hanoi Awake at 6.00am. That’s not going to happen. Surprisingly, I actually manage to get back to sleep for another couple of hours. A very lazy start, and I’m more than okay about that. Twenty five years ago today, my life changed. As did Lisa’s. And if someone said way back then … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 27
30 September - Hanoi Eyes open about 7.30am. But I don’t feel that great. It actually feels a bit like a hangover, but it’s not a hangover. Try a bit more sleep to see if that improves things, and an hour later, it hasn’t. But, I’m no worse, and it’s not that bad that it’s … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 26
29 September - Saigon - Hanoi Awake at 6.00am. And not because I wanted to be. Alarm was actually set for 7.30am. Hoping to make use of the alarm I carefully set last night, I try to rectify my problem of being awake. Apart from maybe a minute or two here or there, I’m not … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 25
31 October - Hanoi Our last full day. And while it’s not as bad as the actual day that you leave, it’s still not a great feeling. Live the moment. Live the moment…. But that’s not always that easy. We head next door for breakfast, and fortunately, there’s chairs free on the balcony. Which is … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 30
30 October - Hanoi Alarm goes off at 6.30am. Perhaps should have made it a little earlier, but that might have been pushing my luck, somewhat. I probably shouldn’t complain, 6.00am was just a bit too painful for me to comprehend last night. We get down to the lake by 6.50am, and there’s heaps of … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 29
29 October - Hanoi A sleep in of sorts, by getting up a little after 8.00am. Three full days left in Hanoi, which means I only have three mornings in which I can fulfil my desire to have breakfast down on the street. Today was certainly an option, in fact it was probably more the … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 28
28 October - Hanoi Once my brain kicks into gear out of the fog of just waking up, the possibility of having a bit of a nothing day today is pretty much confirmed. I feel ordinary; sort of hungover, but I’m not sure that’s all it is. I thought today might have been the … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 27
