Hue

After a night on the train we pulled up to Hue, about 10mins later than we expected (just like England...). Checked in to a hotel and went to the imperial citadel on the 1st day. A lot of it is being rebuilt and refurbished. I thought this was cheating ... Read more >

Nha Trang

So we turned up to the beach and it started to rain...and didn't really stop. Ended up going to a waterpark on Vinpearl island just off the shore of Nha Trang proper. We figured we were gonna get soaked anyway so may as well. Stayed one night. Its pretty ... Read more >

Raging on the river

Wed, 7 Apr 2010 | By melissa_k | Views [376]

We were instructed to get up at 6:00am so that we could have breakfast and be packed up by 7:00am, but the recorded voice over the loudspeaker started at 5:00am. I imagined that it was Socialist propaganda encouraging every Vietnamese within earshot ... Read more >

Down in the delta

Shave and a Hair cut...

Fri, 2 Apr 2010 | By leizza | Views [764] | Comments [3]

So after almost 4 months on the road, I was starting to look a little "backpackerish."  I had gotten a beard trim in Louang Probang, Laos, but needed to loose some hair.  Shaggy is not a good look for Vietnam.  There are barber shops or Hot ... Read more >

Dalat

We turned up to Delat not really knowing what to expect. I found it great. There were less western people than in Saigon (or Siem Reap for that matter) Being aboput 1500m above sea level it was a lot cooler too. Stayed there 2 nights in the end and ... Read more >

Saigon

Thu, 1 Apr 2010 | By slav | Views [343]

So we turned up to Saigon pretty late in the evening. The central area we stayed in was pretty western looking - very french influenced. Stayed a couple of nights, the city itself is pretty much what you expect, but the Cu Chi tunnels outside were ... Read more >
