Tuesday 1 October - Wednesday 2 October - Saigon Tuesday 1 October It’s here. No, not the last day thing, although that is here, but part of the reason for the tattoos. And the trip. Thirty year wedding anniversary. Who would have thought…… Up just before 8.30am, and then out by 9.00am. I’m trying hard … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 17
Monday 30 September - Saigon Monday 30 September Awake at 5.30am. As too is Saigon. But I’m not ready. Waking several more times, my lazy ways are given up at 8.30am. The week we leave has begun, and while I’m trying not to think about it, I’m finding it difficult not to. Down to Diagonal … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 16
Sunday 29 September - Saigon Sunday 29 September A better sleep; no overnight concreting helped with that; up just after 8.00am, and out by 9.00am. Our usual walk of Diagonal Street, and then onto the road of our previous and present cafés. As we walk past our laundry place, she sees us, and begins scrambling … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 15
Friday 27 September - Saturday 28 September - Can Tho (Green Village) - Saigon Friday 27 September Eyes open. 7.00am. Good, still got 45 minutes. Doze; time check; 7.44am. Ha!, beat the alarm by one minute! Alarm switched off before it has a chance to do its thing. But for some reason, it still manages … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 14
Saturday 31 August - Tuesday 3 September - Melbourne - Saigon - Hue A slightly more abbreviated version, still with random, and not so random, thoughts, as well as the possibility of an actual 'important and informative'* bit. *not guaranteed Saturday 31 August The day has arrived, and I’m not really sure how we managed … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 1
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
13 september - can tho - hue Alarm did its thing at 7.40am. Slept okay, but did have really strange dreams. Including one where we were already home. Fortunately it was just a dream, but I think it says a bit about what my brain is spending far more time thinking about, than I’d like. … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 7
12 September - can tho Slept okay. Sort of. Probably shouldn’t have had those two beers when we got back. Up around 8.00am, and then head down to have breakfast. While waiting, I check a WhatsApp message on my phone, from a person called Hanh, who I assume is from the Easyrider group who will … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 6
9 SEPTEMBER – HO CHI MINH CITY Awake a bit after 7.30am, and apart from a feeling of lethargy, which can be dealt with by simply getting up and moving, I feel alright. Force Lisa to also do the getting up thing, and we’re out into a well awake Saigon, a little after 8.00am. Disappear … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 3
25 September - Saigon Awake, but have no idea what time it is. And, not really wanting to know at this stage, I doze for a bit. Eventually my interest in what time it actually is, gets the better of me. Partly because I suspect the morning is starting to get away from us. … Continue reading Cambodia / Vietnam 2019 – Trip Report 21
