Wednesday 2 October - Thursday 3 October - Bangkok Wednesday 2 October (continued) The attempt at sleep, to deal with what was a pretty tiring and draining morning, as usual, was mostly unsuccessful, and not much more than an hour after we left, our Vietjet flight comes to an end, when we’re back on the … Continue reading Vietnam 2024 – Trip Report 18

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.

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.

Monday 3 October - Hanoi - Saigon The usual routine of eyes open at 7.00am, give or take, is altered, with today being not quite 6.00am. Anticipation of the flight? The angst associated with leaving my beloved Hanoi? Not sure, but maybe both. The good news is I’ve still got a bit over an hour, … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 27

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

11 september - can tho Those sounds of the Mekong, mostly frogs and crickets, worked well, with sleep, unusually for me, coming pretty quickly. Up a couple of times during the night, to do what has to be done when you get up in the darkness, and then up a bit before 8.00am. I head … Continue reading Vietnam 2022 – Trip Report 5

13 October - Hanoi - HCMC Up early again; seems to be a recurring theme here…. Yet another pack up, and then it’s downstairs to sort out the hotel bill. That done, I take a seat and wait for my car. While sitting there, one of the staff asks me why I’m not having any … Continue reading Vietnam 2017 – Trip Report 12
