Monday 23 September - Tuesday 24 September - Hanoi - Can Tho (Green Village) Monday 23 September Up just before 9.00am, and downstairs for the easy breakfast of fruit.

Saturday 21 September - Sunday 22 September - Hanoi Saturday 21 September Up at 8.00am, and downstairs to go through the motions of breakfast, with a little bacon to deal with the protein side of things, followed up with some fruit, to cover the plant component which makes it all that little bit healthier. A … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 11
Tuesday 10 September - Wednesday 11 September - Phong Nha - Hanoi - Tam Coc Tuesday 10 September Up a bit before 8.00am. The sleep helped, but only a bit. I just feel so flat. About here, and about what’s going on at home. It’s not supposed to be this way…… Downstairs by 8.30am, and … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 5
Wednesday 20 September - Hanoi Woke a couple of times during the night, and when I did, I felt good. But now, at 8.15am, that feeling of wellness is a distant memory. Head blocked up, some aches and pains, and an overwhelming feeling of lethargy. Lucky it was a relatively early night….. Downstairs by 8.45am … Continue reading Vietnam 2023 – Trip Report 23
Tuesday 19 September - Hanoi Eyes open, and I try and guess the time by how much noise I can hear. My suspicion is that it’s early, which is what I really want it to be, seeing as I don’t really want to get up yet. Phone is looked at. It’s 7.30am. Good, we don’t … Continue reading Vietnam 2023 – Trip Report 22
Monday 18 September - Hanoi Awake at 8.30am, and yep, 12.30am is just a little too late. But with our Hanoi days fast disappearing, I don’t actually want them to end. And giving up and going to sleep means they end. And yes, I know that doesn’t really make sense, when we then lose hours … Continue reading Vietnam 2023 – Trip Report 21
Sunday 17 September - Hanoi Wake a few times during the night, but each time it’s still dark. That’s good. But then it is light; bit before 8.00am, I’m told. Lay there, but then force myself, as well as Lisa, to make a move. Downstairs after 8.30am, into the breakfast area, and we’re it. It … Continue reading Vietnam 2023 – Trip Report 20
Friday 1 September - Hanoi Awake. Time check. 4.30am. Seriously? But good! Back to sleep in my very dark room. Eyes open again. 6.00am. Yeah, that’s not happening. Make it to 7.00am, and while I’m awake, I can’t really be bothered. Lethargy and laziness. 7.30am arrives, and I can put it off no longer. There’s … Continue reading Vietnam 2023 – Trip Report 4
Thursday 31 August - Saigon - Hanoi Eyes open, time checked. 4.45am. Good! Back to sleep. Sort of. Phone looked at again; 5.30am. Still good. Doze, but little else, and then it happens. That bloody alarm tune! Get up, get sorted, and pack up. Quick check of the time, and my phone is telling me … Continue reading Vietnam 2023 – Trip Report 3
Thursday 29 September - Hanoi The routine continues. Eyes open just after 7.00am, and as much as I’d like to bounce out of bed and meet the day head on, I’m just not the bouncing, morning type of person. More sleep is attempted, but not achieved, and it’s merely light dozing. 8.30am arrives, and probably … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 23
