3 October - Hanoi - Ninh Binh Wake to the sound of an alarm. Which I guess is a positive, seeing as I wasn’t laying there awake waiting for it. It’s 5.00am. And yep, it’s painful. Damn beer corner.

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.
