More Vietnam!

VIETNAM | Sunday, 8 February 2009 | Views [527]

Right, so i've not been updating for a while, mainly as Vietnam and Laos have been incredibly hectic with not a moment to spare to use the internet.... or something like that!


So we went on a three day tour of the Mekong Delta leaving Phnom Penh finishing up in Siagon, it was a bit different from the other parts of our trip as the entire thing down to accomodation was organised for us (a bit like our trip in Rajasthan). It was good as we didn't really have to make any arrangements, didn't get harrassed by a hundred tuk-tuk drives wanting to show us there guest house, got to say in decent hotels, see several different towns, traditional activities such as weaving and rice paper manufacture and the whole thing cost $39 (we got a massive $1 discount using my incredible negotiation skills).

On the last leg of our journey into Siagon we were in the same restaurant as Na & Nita, who we'd bumped into a couple of times and Laura had been travelling in Cambodia with, and we traveled up through Vietnam & Laos with them!

Right we're eating into valuable drinking time right now, so i'm off, but i'll try and write more on Siagon, Na Trang, Hoi An, Hue and Laos in another post. Plus looking back on this it's actuallly a really boring post, anyway better hopes for next time!
