13 september - can tho - hue Alarm did its thing at 7.40am. Slept okay, but did have really strange dreams. Including one where we were already home. Fortunately it was just a dream, but I think it says a bit about what my brain is spending far more time thinking about, than I’d like. … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 7
12 September - can tho Slept okay. Sort of. Probably shouldn’t have had those two beers when we got back. Up around 8.00am, and then head down to have breakfast. While waiting, I check a WhatsApp message on my phone, from a person called Hanh, who I assume is from the Easyrider group who will … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 6
11 september - can tho Those sounds of the Mekong, mostly frogs and crickets, worked well, with sleep, unusually for me, coming pretty quickly. Up a couple of times during the night, to do what has to be done when you get up in the darkness, and then up a bit before 8.00am. I head … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 5
10 september - ho chi minh city - can tho Yep, 12.50am was too late. I really need to be better, but there were two beers still in the fridge, and I didn’t want to leave them there, nor take them on the bus trip with us. A job needed to be done, and the … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 4
9 SEPTEMBER – HO CHI MINH CITY Awake a bit after 7.30am, and apart from a feeling of lethargy, which can be dealt with by simply getting up and moving, I feel alright. Force Lisa to also do the getting up thing, and we’re out into a well awake Saigon, a little after 8.00am. Disappear … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 3
It's finally happening again! 2022 arrived, and while Covid lockdowns appeared, hopefully, to be a thing of the past, the new year didn’t feel that much different to the previous two. Overseas travel not only still seemed an impossibility, but it also felt like it would be that way for significant time to come. Vietnam … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – The Planning
20 September - Can Tho - Soc Trang I actually get woken up by the alarm, which doesn’t tend to happen that often. It’s kind of nice, as it usually means that I had a good night’s sleep, which in this case, was exactly what happened. I only got up once during the night, … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 16
19 September - Can Tho Awake at 7.30am; a little bit of a sleep in, I suppose. The process of then figuring out how I actually feel, begins. And through the haze of just waking up, a realisation hits me. I feel good. Like, really good! Finally, after a week, it seems to have … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 15
18 September - Can Tho Alarm was set for 6.45am, but as often happens, it wasn’t required. Awake at 6.30am; oh well, close enough. Actually slept okay, and now, as I lay there, I await the usual signs from the past week to tell me I don’t feel that good. Headache from last night … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 14
17 September - Chau Doc - Can Tho Awake. Again. But at least this time it’s reasonably light outside. However, it’s still only 6.00am, which means I’m awake a bit earlier than I wanted, or needed, to be. While some sleep was achieved, there were certainly lots of times that I woke up during the … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 13
