17 september - hue - hanoi Eyes open, time checked. It’s 5.45am. Good, plenty more time to sleep. Five minutes later, it’s 8.00am. Obviously needed it. Into the upright position, and make a start on that packing thing, which, because we’d had laundry done yesterday, was quicker and easier than it usually is. Downstairs, and … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 11

Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 10
16 september - hue Awake around 6.45am. Not a chance that that is going to happen. Manage to eek out another hour, and then make a move. But only because we really should.

Oh, and probably also because of that mattress….. … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 8

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
