After the mad dash to reach Hanoi I spent one night there before heading to Halong Bay. However, we did return for nother couple of days to organise our trip to SaPa and our route into Laos.
As a city its pretty generic. Big. Went to see Ho Chi Minh, which was quite intense. A lot of guards. A lot of security. No cameras allowed. I stepped 2metres out of line to see if I could spot Jack and Grant and I was made to go back through security again!
Water puppet show was pretty fun. But before I had a chance to settle we were getting on a night train to SaPa. Jack made the decision to head back to Siem Reap, so now I'm travelling with Chris and Grant from the building project.
