Originally posted on TripAdvisor, this is trip report #9... 12-13 October 2014 Time to say good bye to Mai Chau. The only thing that makes it slightly less difficult is the fact that we … Continue reading Vietnam 2014 – Trip Report #9
These reports are from our very first trip to Vietnam in September 2014, so prior to the previous trip reports! Originally posted on TripAdvisor, this is Trip Report #6... 4 - 6 October 2014 While leaving Hoi An had been difficult, I didn’t have too many issues with leaving Hue. It was time to … Continue reading Vietnam 2014 – Trip Report #6
Hanoi - Ho Chi Minh City The alarm goes off. It’s loud. But things are always loud at 4.30am. My early morning, fuzzy brain, slowly begins to kick in. First realisation; I feel like crap. I feel like absolute crap! My wish from the night before has not come true. I now feel worse. Significantly … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 17
Hanoi Woke up. Good start! It’s always nice to wake up….. Felt……, well…., good…..ish….. Which surprised me. But, then……. Laying in bed, and my stomach starts gurgling. “Sounds like a party is going on in your stomach!”, Lisa says, in a slightly upbeat way, that just…… Well, you know, it just….. It certainly wasn’t a … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 16
Hanoi Well, the ‘coming good’, didn’t happen. The night’s sleep, unfortunately, didn’t really include a great deal of it. And now, in the cold hard light of day, the hope that it was a 24 hour thing, had gone down the toilet. Which is kind of ironic, seeing as where I spent a bit of … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 15
Hanoi Up reasonably early, and feeling reasonably okay. But not great. I consider the possibility of sitting over the road with a bowl of pho, but feeling a little so so, I decide I need something a little more substantial. Less liquid-y, I guess. Maybe tomorrow…… So anyway, back to the routine of breakfast on … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 14
Hanoi No real sleep in today, but not up that early, either. That plan for the day? Ticking off another thing from my list. Well, a couple of things, actually. West Lake and Truc Bach Lake. As well as that downed B52 bomber in another lake. But first, breakfast on our balcony. Which, strangely, … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 13
Hanoi Well, we had a sleep in! It was actually the first sleep in since, well……., since the last time we had a sleep in. Which I think may have been a few days before we left Melbourne. And it was a long enough sleep in that we missed breakfast on the balcony next door. … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 12
Pu Luong - Ninh Binh - Hanoi Up early. Again….. But that’s alright. Sort of….. Everyone else seems to be up anyway, so why shouldn’t we. I’m feeling alright, not 100%, but nothing that’s going to stop me doing anything. Laying in bed, I grab the camera to look at some of our photos. … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 11
Hanoi - Ninh Binh - Pu Luong Nature Reserve Up early. Again….. But this morning made yesterday feel like a sleep-in. This time, we were up before 5.00am! They say nothing good happens after 2.00am. Well, I reckon nothing good happens before 5.00am! I didn’t even have the kids here to act all bubbly in … Continue reading Vietnam 2016 – Trip Report 9
