So now we are in Hanoi! And I am out of steam, and hung-er-y!
Hanoi
is a cool little city, busy but friendly. Today we visited Ho Chi
Minh's mausoleum, a bit creepy but very interesting from a
fly-on-the-wall perspective. We also went to the Temple of Literature
where Confucious studied and taught ["he is older than Jesus, if he
acually existed"- Sean] which was very pretty and ate at KOTO "Know One
Teach One", a not-for-profit restaurant that teaches hospitality skills
to previously homeless kids. Awesome. Everyone is well-dressed here
because cheap nice clothes are on every corner, which is a bit
embarrassing for us stinky dirty backpackers but interesting to see on everyone else.
Tomorrow
we are heading on a one-day, two night trip to Halong Bay, sleeping in a
'junk' on the water and visiting caves and such things.
Hello natural wonder of the world and goodnight blogger for today!

Good morning blogger and both very hungry travellers. Thank you for the posts. All sounds awesome. We are looking forward to the photos and stories, esp Grandma, who was very amused to hear about the treehouse.
