NUMBER 5

VIETNAM | Friday, 4 April 2008 | Views [618]

Hey cool cats !

Still in Vietnam in the old capital of Hue . Since last time i put down i have travelled to the North of Vietnam visiting Sapa and of course Hanoi . I personally found the north quite different to the south and central Vietnam so it turned out to be quite the eye opener for me personally . 

Sapa was really cool tucked away high up in the mountains near the chinese border . I think the highlight would have to have been a chat i had with a lady from the local Hmong tribe . Her name was Mai and she was super cool and super friendly . Was really cool also to see the valley that the township sits atop on a clear day too and then to watch the valley be consumed with low cloud , and of course it got cold . Went adventuring into a nearby village at the bottom of the valley which was really cool too .

Today is the last day in Vietnam today and tomorrow its off to country number 5 , Laos . Spent the last couple of days really chillin out in Hue getting ready to take on the slow journey through Laos . Laos celebrates  'Pii Mai' around the 15th which is their new year celebrations complete with an all out water soaking of everyone on the streets which should be a whole lotta fun .

Early bus tomorrow so i must be checkin out for now ... take it easy party people ... hope the sun is shining for you all ...

Big love ... and Enjoy !
