Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 25

26 October - Hoi An - Hanoi   Just for a change, we’re up about 7.00am.  But this time we sort of need to be. Do a bit of packing and tidying up, and then head downstairs for the usual breakfast of fruit and caphe sua da. That done, we finish off the packing and … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 25

Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 24

25 October - Hoi An Up at our fairly usual time of 7.00am, give or take a few minutes, which seems to be a recurring theme. I’m not sure why it always seems to be around 7.00am, because it’s certainly not a conscious thing.  It kind of just happens. Anyway, whatever the reason, we head … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 24

22 October - Hoi An   Wake up about 7.00am, which is a little earlier than I planned, or wanted. But, when your body decides that it no longer needs, or wants, something that it’s retaining, you kind of need to get up. And because it seemed to be in a bit of a hurry, … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 21

21 October - Can Tho - Hoi An The alarm does its requested job at 6.30am, and we get ourselves organised doing the final pack up thing.
